Writing is fun for me, yet whenever I try to write something I get a couple of pages in, and then freeze. I try to continue the story, but can only get few sentences a day, before I have to do something else, which is probably spending time improving on the first couple of pages, until I can’t anymore. After that, if I haven’t already, I start gradually plotting out the story scene by scene, before I go back and add another sentence or two. After I finish plotting, then I start rewriting the first couple of pages to fit more inline for my plans and, if I haven’t already, start creating a pseudo encyclopedia for the various characters, creatures, organizations, locations, etc. Then I write a paragraph or two, before I come up with a new story idea and repeating this process for another story. All the while, I will tell myself I need to improve my writing before I can continue the old story when I try to go back and write it.
So then, how does writers block manifest for you? How do you deal or try to deal with it?
