I've heard that commenting on other blogs for a bit is useful for generating new ideas

ideas aren't the problem. I've got plenty right now. Yet for some reason the words themselves aren't flowing.

Do you write outlines of posts before writing. That helps me find the words sometimes.

I also find I write better at certain times of the day. Morning and after dinner seem to be the best times for me

hey Steven. Yeah, I'm working on your guest post at the moment. I've got a very clear outline, but the words aren't coming to me right now.

funny that it's for me. I know there are days the writing just won't come to me. Yesterday was one of those days

it's really frustrating. I don't get a whole lot of writing time, so I need to make the most of it when it comes. Hmm... maybe I need a walk

sometimes getting away from it and then getting back to it helps

go for a walk. Works wonders for me...

thanks for the advice guys. The break helped and the words are coming back. Yipee...

Well James, after that awesome "blog authority" post, you're fully entitled to a whole week's rest

Thanks amsall. But that wasn't actually the one I was writing at the time... The one that caused my block is still a work in progress
