How to Overcome Writers Block and Other Secrets of the Creative Life

Update: 2021-06-24

Description

Have you ever started a creative project and somewhere along the way become ... stuck?

Creative block is part of the process. And we're curious how everyone deals with it. This episode, author and writing coach Allison Fallon asks, "What do you do when you get stuck in your writing or in life?"

We get lots of different answers: everything from physical movement to letting distraction run its course, and Ally shares her own writer's block trick. If you're curious to hear more, check out Ally's post about it on Instagram. (And if you responded there, you might just get a shoutout!).
