As Bill Statsky, a long-time writing mentor, reminded me: “Writing is easy. All you do is stare at a blank sheet of paper until drops of blood form on your forehead.” Gene Fowler, in The Writer’s Quotation Book 41 (James Charlton ed., 1985).

We have all faced this at one time or another. Let’s be honest – it happens. The fear of a blank page is a powerful thing, even for the best of writers.

This article is for anyone who has ever faced a writing deadline, and waited until the last minute to start. It is for those folks who sat down to write, and could not think of anything to say. I know you are out there. I have been there too. If any of this sounds familiar, this article is for you! -CCE
