Ah writer’s block, an age old enemy since days of yore… Once again I find myself blocked while the muse sits ever so contentedly shackled on my shoulder, mocking me. Sure, I’ve been writing gadgety and technical articles daily, but when it comes to poetry, prose, fiction – there’s nothing.

My good friend Vicky (aka Lyrica-Lee) always says: Just Write. Whether its good or bad, when faced with writer’s block, JUST WRITE. Good sound advice.

Below you’ll find a list of writing prompts.

Those of you who know me and stalk my various online hideouts will know that this list popped up many many times before.

This is a guest post written by James Richmond, back when he was still owner of *The Info Preneur, and back when my original site was still up and running. Sites come and go, people come and go, but the information still applies. Here, he shares his tips for beating writers block***

Writers block or brain melt happens to everyone, even Cheryl will have writers block every now and again. It happens to everyone, but there are some simple steps to lower the frequency of this happening. I have published over 150 posts to my site in 10 weeks and I haven’t yet been stuck for things to write.
