The Challenge of Writer's Block
Writer's block is a common challenge faced by many creators, causing a feeling of panic and avoidance of the blank page. It is often driven by fear of failure, perfectionism, or an overwhelming focus on the end result. Mia Volurello suggests diffusing the power of writer's block by writing for oneself and trusting that the right audience will find the work. Jaya Konzo challenges the notion of writer's block, asserting that it is a construct and a story we tell ourselves. She encourages writers to write through the block and embrace the process, rather than striving for immediate brilliance.
