For those of you writing fan-fictions, I'm sure, at some stage, that you will get writer's block in some form, or another. I've been writing for years and years, probably around eight years and I thought I would share some information with you all, just in case you do get writer's block.

1. Always remember that trying to force yourself into writing something is not the way to go about it. Give yourself a day, or two, and then go back to writing after that. Sometimes, even the smallest break will allow your brain to clear, relieve stress from life in general and get back into a routine, or whatever suits your particular writing style.

2. This one is important. Without it, writing can be very difficult. Make sure you are aware of the things that influence you to write. I am thoroughly convinced that influences in writing are singularly the most imperative part of writing. For myself, memories, watching anime, experiencing happiness, Fanpopping and reading books are some of the influences for my writing. When I get too busy to do any of these, I tend to end up with writer's block. I have been writing a book for about six years and it's not even half-complete, which comes down to influences, but sometimes they can be influences personal to one piece of writing - in this case, it is because I wrote out about 1/3 of it, then lost about 30 pages of that book when I had a hard drive failure on my computer and the stuff not on Fanpop disappeared. I was gutted. Because of that, and some editing I needed to do, I just fully stopped on that particular piece of writing and haven't written a word since. So, when it comes to issues like that, just do your best to work out your influences and make sure that you can always look back upon them, as a guide for your writing.

3. Don't be lazy. I'm not trying to be rude, because I have been lazy about writer's block before, too. It's not easy, but just do your best. If you want to write something, then write it. Don't let writer's block get you down in the dumps and don't let it stop you. Sometimes it's just easier to forget about it and spend your time doing other things. That is laziness. If you truly want to achieve anything in life, then you have to work for it (bearing in mind, I have been lazy as well, as with the part of [2.] that I mentioned earlier) and that means doing it, even when you want to do other stuff as well... if you set yourself goals, then follow them and you'll be fine as long as you make yourself do the hard work and understand that sacrificing even half an hour will help with writer's block, if you make the effort to.

To conclude with my point, I realise that 1. and 3. might seem to contradict one another. That's not true. If you are aware of both, then you'll be able to understand that they are both extremes and you can avoid that by not forcing yourself, but making a conscious effort every so often. If you understand that, then you are steps closer to dealing with writer's block and making life easier when you wish to put the pen to the paper (or the finger to the keypad, if that's how you roll).

Anyway, I hope this helps you all and thank you to anyone who reads this and understands (and potentially appreciates, too :P)

I am sorry for the quality I don't have a good recorder. Also I am very out of practice. I have not sang in public for years! I wasn't sure if I should post it, but I decided to be a good sport and do it.

This is my, cowgirlfromhell, entry for Fanpop's Got Talent 2008. It is also a story that I wrote for my English exam. I had to write about The Best or Worst Holiday I Had. I wrote about a Best AND Worst Holiday. I obviously made it up, it will become obvious when you read it. I didn't get it back yet so it's not the exact same but it's more or less the same.


The worst holiday I ever had was in the middle of nowhere. There was only people aged 18 or younger living there because they killed all the adults. It reminds me of Stephen King's short story ''Children of The Corn''.
The children there...
