How to Break Writer’s Block… with Andrew Blackman

This course deals with the common problem among would-be writers: feeling blocked or unable to write. This block could be due to lack of time in a busy life, but often that’s an excuse for something more powerful: psychological resistance, often driven by fear. The course is ideal for all levels. This course will address both types of block and offer practical solutions for overcoming them and developing a regular writing routine. We’ll look at:

• How writers can organise their lives to make space and time for their writing
• Techniques they can use to help them build the writing habit and avoid procrastination
• Common psychological blocks that prevent people from writing and how to overcome them
• Concrete approaches to structuring a large writing project and breaking it down into manageable steps
