About this episode

Diann Schindler discusses her personal experience with writer's block and shares strategies to overcome it.

Writers' block is real, and it came at me with a vengeance, cloaked in what I thought was celebratory excitement at the point I released my thriller novel manuscript to beta readers. When I mustered the courage to face the truth, paralysis was poised to take control. I had to change my thoughts, my emotions, my mind. Listen to my strategies to address a personal variety of writer's block. My next novel, a thriller entitled "Claim Denied" is coming soon. Email me at Diann@DiannAbroad.com for an advanced copy and/or for launching information. "The Artist's Way" by Julia Cameron (Three morning pages.) Note, I reference writing three morning pages but, to be clear, I didn't include it as a strategy for improving tennis ... only for addressing my writer's block. "Short Tarot-Centered Meditation for Artists to Overcome Writing Fear" by Thea Fiore-Bloom (Scroll down to the middle of the page to find this meditation.) "The War of Art" by Steven Pressfield. Intro and outgo music: "The Amelia Island Sun" by Rafael Javadov Interlude music: "Headache" by Dream Machine Thank you for listening. Diann@DiannAbroad.com DiannAbroad.com
