Suffering from writer’s block has never been my problem, my mind is always bubbling with ideas and honestly I have too much in my plate to enjoy the luxury of having too much time in hand to give my muse. Usually I end up forgetting things that I was about to write. Sometimes permanently!

If you are suffering from writer’s block you may try these tricks, I try them when I try to discipline my muse by writing a little every day, not writing whole month’s quota in a week!

1. Do things that stimulate your muse! In my case it is reading, when I read about things, that can be anything- a travel blog, description of a planet, a creature, anything at all, my brain often spins off a story. Like some of my stories of Urania’s table popped up in my mind when I was watching a national geography video on other planets of our solar system, their beautiful description.
2. Music works wonder for me in case of poetry, especially the ones with video, quite a few of my poems have been written by watching songs, music and video. The videos on nature do the same magic when I am writing poetry.
3. Read about places, phases- they often give idea to great pieces. Historical places stimulate my brain a lot! You must have a trigger of your own!
4. Dream with open eyes! Yes, dream, let your muse write a story or poem for you, then you can brush it up!
That will be it for today, hope some will help you!

Take care and stay safe!
