I was once told that writer’s block doesn’t exist; it’s just a writer being lazy.
What this means is that you need to do the work to get writing inspiration instead of sitting around and waiting for it.
Here are some products that will help you do that work for inspiration in an easier and much funner way.
Stuck on a new story? Get yourself this emergency pack of cards you can pull out for a sure remedy to your writer’s block.
Are games more your thing? Get into the creative mindset before writing by playing these games designed to overcome writer’s block.
I don’t know about you, but nothing gets me into a writing mood when I have writer’s block like a brand new, fresh, gorgeous journal. I recently got this one and I love that you can tell it was made with care, and the paper is amazing quality.
Feeling in a writing slump? These products will create a writing space that is sure get you excited to write again. There’s no better time to create or redecorate a writing space than with the fresh start of a new year.
A staple of a writing space is a desk to write on. This one is simple yet elegant, complete with shelves for your notes to lay close at hand on. Available in two sizes and three different colors.
If your writing space is a bit more lacking in space, this small, folding table is the perfect solution. It’s just big enough of a space to work on, and it can easily fold up too if you want to move it around the house.
Prefer writing in bed or on the couch? Make your comfy writing spot even more comfy with this lap desk and you’ll be reaching your writing goals in no time!
And with a desk, you need a good chair. Writers spend lots of time sitting while writing, so it’s important to have a chair that’s comfy enough to spend hours writing in.
If you’re looking for a more eye-pleasing and cozy chair, check this one out. It’s not only comfy- it’s also very stylish and inviting.
Let’s face it: procrastination is the worst enemy to your writing. Who here is reading this to procrastinate writing right now?
Making sure everything is organized will decrease the things you can procrastinate doing, therefore increasing the time you will spend writing.
Always have a pen or pencil at hand with this cute typewriter pen holder! It also doubles as a great desk decoration.
Easily tidy up your desk so that you have nothing nearby to spend time tidying when you’re trying to write.
I seriously don’t know how I kept my writing organized before I got a whiteboard. Use it either to keep track of your writing projects (and leave it front and center so you’re always reminded of your writing goals!) or use it to draft what happens in each chapter of your current WIP.
It’s easy to get distracted while writing. These products will help you stay focused on your writing.
Let your roommates or loved ones know when your writing needs your full attention. Make sure they know to respect this door knob sign!
These brain-boosting dietary supplements will help your brain do the work necessary to finally finish that first draft you’ve been stuck on.
If you set aside a small chunk of time each day that you have to write, you’ll be more likely to be able to focus on your writing during that time.
Use a sand timer to keep track so that you’re free from technology, and if time’s up you won’t be alerted by annoying beeping that will interrupt your train of thought. Even when time’s up, you can still keep writing in peace.
Choose between a half hour or hour option, based on how long you’d like your writing session to be.
They say reading is one of the best ways to get writing inspiration. And a book written about how to overcome writer’s block or increase creativity is sure to help!
Understand how to overcome your writer’s block with this book.
Is fear holding you back from reaching your writing goals? This book definitely made me think about my writing process differently.
It’s an old book, though still relevant. I read it last year and found it was just what I needed to read while struggling to write my first book.
Start the year off with this journal, filled with question for each day inspiring creative exploration.
These 365 prompts are “designed to help writers think about their process, observe the world around them, and focus on the act of crafting thoughtful, beautiful writing.”
