There is no such Thing as Writer's Block

Or keeping the creativity flowing

According to Peter who tends to move onto another project and then back to the one he is working on when he gets stuck. I try to do the same thing when I get stuck in a project. I'll start something else that I may not finish just to clear the brain and have another run at the problem I am working out in my head.

I also find that when I hit a brick wall on something going off and taking a walk or even a nap can help me regroup. Then I can come back and try something else. On occasion I can't see that I am that frustrated but Peter will and strongly suggest that I go do something else for a bit.

I think everyone has their own tricks when they hit the wall on a project.

So the question to the group is what do you do when you hit the creative wall?

I am very interested in the answers.

I am grateful when the wall goes away for a while.

Set things aside

I set things aside and move on to something else, then pick up where I left off on the original project later. If I'm really not feeling productive I take off and go do something else for a day. That generally does the trick. :)
