Re: writers block
Hi Emma!
there are a few strategies I like to use when i need to write but can't come up with something. A lot of times that comes from perfectionism-- you don't know what to write because nothing is perfect enough, right? I know I do that. So I have to force myself to let go and write something terrible in order to have anything written. You can't edit a first draft you haven't written, but you can rewrite something you already have.
