Overcome Writer’s Block Through Email

Writer’s Block Email

Chanpory Rith of LifeClever.com has a great article on how to overcome writer’s block by starting with an email. I found this article particularly useful because I’m not exactly consistent with my writing; some days everything is flowin’, and other days it’s like I’ve forgotten how to think. Here’s Chanpory:

None of us have problems writing emails. Longer written pieces, however, awaken our inner critic. Is that sentence structured correctly? Hey, are you putting those periods in the right place? You get so worried about perfection, you can’t even start. Creativity stops. Procrastination becomes tempting, and you go off to play Dance Dance Revolution or Sudoku instead. Email lowers the standards.
