How To Deal With a Writing Block

I’m currently writing a rom com novella - a new genre to me, and I’m on a tight deadline, and as usually happens about a third of the way into a manuscript I hit a block! As is my way, instead of facing the block head on (which years of experience has told me I SHOULD do) I followed my usual pattern and procrastinated big time.

But with a deadline looming I knew it was time to do something and I had to get back into the work, somehow. Partly as a reminder to myself, I thought I’d record what I actually did to get myself back on track so if anyone out there is struggling with the same issues, you might find something in my experience to motivate you to get back to the writing.

I’d love to hear your thoughts on anything I mention in the video, and would love to hear how you tackle writing blocks when they get in your way.
