Ah. That dreaded blank page.

The famous villain we all call: \u201cwriter's block.\u201d

This week we\u2019re exploring misconceptions and biases and answering these questions:

\U0001f449 Is writer's block real?

\U0001f449Can we be expected to create \u201con demand\u201d?

I\u2019ll cut to the chase\u2026 my answers to both are YES.

I\u2019ll admit, perhaps we can\u2019t all just create genius-stand-the-test-of-time works of art on command each time.

But to create the extraordinary we need to go through the ordinary every day.

If we only create when we have a \u201cflash of insight\u201d we might be waiting a long time.

Because creativity is rarely glamorous or sexy. It\u2019s hard work, practice, and pushing through the \u201cmental blocks\u201d that come up.

If creativity is required in any way in your craft then this episode is for you.

There\u2019s even practical tips and reflections on how you can tap into your creativity on demand.

Spoiler alert: turns out every single one of us uses creativity every day.

Let\u2019s do this.
