《How to write a book》Writer's block
Advertisement
As far as I know there are several easy things you could try. First of all: remember that this is a first draft. It doesn't have to be perfect. Just keep on writing. Once you have finished the first draft you can go and change everything. Sometimes taking the pressure of having to be perfect off your shoulders is enough to lift a writer's block. Take some time off from writing if you need it. After a good night's sleep your inspiration might return.
If you've done this and still don't know what to write, you could try to step into the shoes of your main character. Start writing about an ordinary day in his or her life, and soon your inspiration will return. When that happens you should think about what your character would do in the situations in your chapter. You shouldn't have any trouble coming up with things, if you can (almost) convince yourself that you're writing down a real situation with real people. Real people always react to the things around them in a certain way, and if you know your characters, you'll know what they'll do. And there you have a chapter.
Still having trouble? There is one more thing you could do, but you are not going to like it. A very effective (yet quite boring method) is to reread everything you've written so far. Change all the little (and bigger) things you don't like about it. Don't be afraid to remove huge parts, even whole chapters. This might add to the strength of your story. Maybe you'll even feel at some point that what your story or book really needs is an extra chapter. Just go wild. There is a reason after all that you were experiencing a writer's block. Most of the time it's because you've written something that doesn't belong in your story, or you've forgotten to add an important piece of information. In short, you know that your story isn't good enough yet, and your creativity blocks as a result of that.

Debut: the day every young gentleperson of age gathers to receive their Spirit Blessing and shift for the first time into their second form. Except for those who don't. Beatrice's worst fear is to be one of the unlucky few trapped perpetually in a human body, cut off from the magic of the spirits and unfit for any respectable pack or pride. But when the time comes to face her fear, the outcome is one she never could have imagined. Be warned, this story is some highly experimental fluff—an unapologetically girly, unrelentingly bisexual, Regency/Victorian-ish fantasy mish-mash. It does have a dark side, though, so don’t come in expecting all sunshine and roses. Worthy of note, given the reputation of shifter stories: there will be no explicit sex in this tale. There will, however, be lots of polyamorous romance, necromancy, portal magic, capricious spirits, elemental mages, an unconventional take on shifters and a highly ordered society built around their existence.
8 66Blood of the Past
He awoke in a startled rush feeling as though it had been centuries since last he had opened his eyes, but alas, it had. His thoughts returned and he heard the screaming of his people and the great pain from the burning fires set against them. He was shunned and outcast along with the rest of his people, and the wars, the terrible wars fought because they could not understand. The Humans could not understand and would not understand him and his peoples true nature. He stood, his strength returning to him, as he did so the dust that had gathered on him fell to the floor. He looked around the cave which he hid in all those centuries ago and he found the way out. He made his way towards it, wanting to see the same as which he had when he entered, wilderness. He made it to the mouth of the cave and found it to be near midday, and he saw naught but wilderness. Save a lone tower far in the distance clearly overgrown and abandoned. His blood boiled as he stepped into the light and the harsh reality of him and his people rushed back into his mind. He would wait for night, and then he would move.

8 87rabbits sin of silence (Seven Deadly Sins X reader)
There were eight deadly sins but, seven sounds better.It's more catchy.It lets people be bystanders, it lets them watch without interference.Because the eighth sin was the sin of silence.and no one likes to see the faults in themselves.------------- discontinued -none of the characters of plot lines from the seven deadly sins belong to me.
