There is no such thing as writer's block. You can always write. You can ALWAYS write. Look here, you wrote this question!
Write about having writer's block. Write a blog post. Write about not being able to write and how horrible that feels.

Writers Block - How do you source content for new articles?
Come a time when the need of creating content meets writer's block. Not sure what to write, not sure where to start, and you keep thinking and thinking and nothing, nada, zero. You just can not get that magic click of what to write next.
When this happens what do you do? You are determined to write an article and yet nothing's there. What next?

Interesting. I actually wrote a post about exactly what you said, although at that time I was not really suffering form this syndrome. Good point though and thanks for the link.

A good way to clear writer's block is to just take a break, unless bound by a deadline or requirement due to work. Once relaxed and mind clear, do things that you enjoy, the best writing comes from your life experiences and the way you put your passions into your writing. I'm sure if you loved a certain movie, you could write about it forever, mentioning why the actor's were good or bad for parts, why the cinematography was on point, the sets, etc. The topic may not always be interesting or your cup of tea, therefore, your must take ownership and twist it in a way either your audience can relate or you do. Most important to the writing process: always proofread!

If I have the topic and can't decide how to write it, I will enter keywords in GoogleAd words to come up with related keywords. Sometimes the related words wind up being the best words to use in my article and what I thought my main subject was changes. For non Internet type writing, I think reading similar sources helps to spur the mind to think towards the topic you wish to write about. If I am looking for a topic to begin from scratch, I think of things that interest me and what I could share with others, consider where I have traveled and if there is a benefit to share from the visit, or I think about things I learned while raising my children. For me, when I run out of topic ideas, family topics are the ones I can usually write to get my brain in the right frame again. Good luck finding your next topic.

I write on average 80 articles a month, usually more than that but yeah I get writers block often. When I get stuck on writing content, I will switch to something fun like writing a short story or go watch a life time movie. I also venture out into nature and there when when I really get creative. Always carry a notebook with you to jot down ideas for articles that way when you do seem to have writer's block you can refer to it and get flowing again.
