I would be hit with many great ideas in the morning but I would find adequate excuses to shirk transforming my ideas into a page, an article or a story. In other words I would have encountered - "The infamous WRITER's BLOCK".
Since my childhood, I discovered my passion for literature, though my Mom insisted I should take an engineering degree as my profession, I never actually fell apart with reading. I would devour bulky novels while hiding them into the attic. I would hide many of them under my blanket, reading them in the wee hours of night. I would not rest till I came to the last page.

Did you ever experience Writer's Block? How did you come out of it?
Writer's block assumes more the form of not knowing which alternative to accept when writing something. So it becomes not what to write, but how -- by which options presenting themselves -- to write.
Have you read La Peste (The Plague) by Albert Camus? It's like Joseph Grand, who has many options -- far more than I ever allow myself! -- for how to begin the first sentence of his ever-dreamed-of book. But it's unlike him in that I get past those finite options that I consider.
So the only way I never leave the first line is when writing a poem as a one-line monostich!
Sheilamarie - Writing is an art, capturing the attention span of the audience, getting them hooked to your story, undoubtfully requires skills. I agree that the author needs to introduce humour, suspense and the likes which encompass the techniques he/she has to acquire on the passage to writing.
I agree with you that to become a good writer you have to be a good reader. You also need to read like a writer, noticing how the author uses techniques to pull you in as a reader and to keep you engaged.
I did tell you the option..... I'll Take The Poll Later. :)
@frankbeswick - I love to read your articles. Whenever I come back to Wizzley, I have to browse through your page. It is great that you could produce such nice articles with whatever limited time you have at your disposal.
@Mira - I agree it is best when the writing comes out naturally. Effortlessly and creatively written articles are the best. I think everyone has a writer in him/her, only thing you need is the passion to write.
@candy47 - Tell me what option you want me to add. I will definitely add it.
@AngelaJohnson - You are blessed. I have experienced the "Writer's Block" many times and it is difficult to come out of it easily. So far, I have always managed to come back.
I never have writer's block. Instead, I have TOO MANY things I want to write about, and then often have too many projects started but never completed.
Reading this article gave me inspiration and ambition. Thanks! I took your poll but I was looking for another option...I'll take the poll later.
