Abbie Emmons | How to Break Through Writer's Block During NaNoWriMo 💪 @AbbieEmmons | Uploaded November 2023 | Updated October 2024, 10 hours ago.
We’re nearly halfway through NaNoWriMo! A lot of writers experience a creative lull during the halfway point of a writing project — also known as the “mushy middle” 😰 when you might be feeling burnt out or lacking creativity.
That’s why, in this new podcast, Kate and I are tackling one of the most daunting challenges any writer can face: writer's block. It's a universal struggle, that overwhelming feeling of being stuck… the frustratingly blank page that seems impossible to fill. We understand how this can be particularly stressful during NaNoWriMo, when you're racing against the clock to meet your word count goals. But fear not, we're here to help! This podcast episode is designed to guide you through overcoming writer's block, cultivating a creative mindset, and keeping those words flowing. Tune in for practical tips, inspiring advice, and the motivation you need to keep going, even when the going gets tough.
