What to Do When You’re Experiencing Writing Fatigue?
What do you do when you grow tired of writing? By tired I mean you have done much writing and you don’t feel like it anymore.
I can hear some of you saying go and read a book. But what if you’re tired of the written word? What if short stories, poems or even motivational books increase your `fatigue’?
You need a breath of fresh air. You have to recharge yourself by switching to a non-word medium. You could pick up a coffee table book and just concentrate on the photographs.
Or watch a Charlie Chaplin silent movie or just watch a movie in a language that’s foreign to you without the subtitles on.
Without the subtitles on, you’re forced to concentrate on the expression of the actors and their actions.
Alternatively, you could watch a movie in a language you understand but don’t write in.
