Overcoming Writer's Block with Guest Mentor Marisa Donnelly 10-Minute Mentor with Rich Perry

- Entrepreneurship
[From our guest mentor]
“Writer’s Block” plagues many - from the most experienced writer to the novice. But what is it and how does one overcome it? In my perspective, “Writer’s Block” doesn’t exist. It’s simply something we’ve given a name to - what it really is, is fear. And we can overcome fear when we choose to embrace and fight it head-on.
The important thing about fighting your feelings of fear, inadequacy, or simply being ‘stuck’ in your writing process is that you’re going to face this MANY times throughout your life. Learning what it is, how to fight it, and who you are - as a person and a writer - will empower you.
