Lee takes you through their latest bout of so-called block (turns out, it was just a bunch of excuses!) and some strategies for getting unblocked:
1. not beating the shit out of yourself for not writing
2. celebrating the small wins, and
3. creating minimum baselines. So minimum you can't not meet them.

“Talent is insignificant. I know a lot of talented ruins. Beyond talent lie all the usual words: discipline, love, luck, but most of all, endurance.” ~James Baldwin

Is writer’s block real? What exactly is the “block”? Did you put it there or did someone else? Is the block depression, in which case maybe you need a break. Or is it just that you aren’t sure of your argument, in which case you need to write. Are you in Jesus’s cave or Plato’s? If you asked Eve Sedgwick or Audre Lorde if they had writer’s block while they were dying of cancer they probably would have said, “I have writer’s block all the time, that’s the whole reason I write.”
When you’re thinking (or bitching to someone else), that you have writer’s block, think about what you actually mean:
I don’t know what I’m trying to say
This essay is a mess
I’m never going to figure this out
Nobody cares about this
I don’t have enough theory.Connect with Allison @postphdtheblog or at allisonharbin.com

Each episode tackles a different writing excuse. But I don’t have time. But all the emailz. But neoliberalism. Some of them are entitled bullshit. And some of them are for real, like, “but my depression” and “but black mold in my apartment.” We’ll cover them all…eventually…
Plz plz plz rate and review the show so that other writers can find it! The struggle is real.
