Got writers block? I'm going to fix you up in two simple paragraphs.
Method number one: Go to a press conference. Just put on a suit and tie, and show up at any pre-arranged media event. Tell them you are a journalism student; they’ll let you in, feed you free food, give you a fat press packet and probably put you on television.
You will slip behind the imaginary wall of television, seeing how stories get choreographed into news--this revelation alone could launch a thousand novels. I attended a news conference yesterday, it inspired Christmas metaphors and fun prose.
Method Number Two: This unique solution came from our buddy PeteLit, I've been meaning to link to it for weeks. He maps it in a simple equation: Gin + Greyhound = No More Writer's Block.
