Writing Tip
Our monthly writing tips are written by our very own TerishD. You can read more in Terish's Blog located in "The Abstractions" area of the forum.

Look Back

When not able to write ahead, it helps to look back. In my case I had written a paragraph ahead of the story. What I needed to do was add a section of exposition (talking) presenting some facts. In going back, I realized that I could insert a section where a 'tour' of the surroundings could be done. This allowed for character interaction, story development, and other things that enabled me to present the facts in an entertaining manner.

One should not face a writer's block with the mentality of bursting through it. I have found in my own experience that a writer's block is usually due to my mind indicating that it has a problem in 'channeling' the story. One reason might be a re-imagining of certain story points. Another reason however is that there is a problem in where you are at in the story, so you need to look back and find out the problem with the 'journey' that prevents the tale from advancing.

Hello all, my name is Genivre and I write dramatic fiction.
I tend to visualize my characters and their surroundings in a cinematic sense, and have thus given thought to writing within the screenplay format.
There aren't enough hours in the day to write! In the morning, I enjoy free-style, random journaling...and throughout the day I work on other pieces I've constructed over the the years, mostly based on that early morning cess-pool of ideas.
I also paint and enjoy photography, incorporating a selection of the pieces within the text, but not entirely literally, (such as a graphic novel).
I look forward to learning and sharing with other writers here and am happy to have stumbled upon this website!
