Writers block happens when a writer runs out of ideas. It can happens to almost anyone. Causes of it can come from lack of knowledge in a subject, lack of inspiration, or even a lack of interest in the subject one is writing about.
Rose said that writers block often ended up causing the students to rush through paper and work, often causing low grades. This also caused students to doubt their ability as a writer. She believed that writers block was caused by emotions such as fear and anxiety.
Rigid Rules: Process what you are reading and understand that you will not get it right away, that understanding the reading comes with time. Use past learning to help you get through your work. they are learned through experience from what you are taught and from what you pick up on. The use of flexibility can help one get through a hard spot in a reading/writing. They are rules that you will learn throughout your life. They can also make you lose you momentum in the midst of your work.
Causes of Writers Block According to Rose:
1.Fear 2.Anxiety 3.Insecurity 4.Difference of a Cognitive style 5. Melding of Emotion and Cognition.
6. The inability to decide what you want to write about. 7. Scrapping your ideas do to a deadline and having to rush through it instead of taking your time.
More Causes of Writers Block:Lack of interest in the topic. Lack of knowledge in a subject. Struggle to come up with a opinion or how to back it up. Distractions while you are trying to write. Unable to express ones true feelings about a piece.
When looking at these, I suffer from anxiety because I fear the worst and hope for something in between good and bad when I am writing. I need to be able to know that I will get the best grade on a essay, otherwise I am scared to death that I will get a shitty grade.
To over come such a block one can ask for help, take a break from a subject, or write down ideas. It also helps to make a plan, before you start writing, of what you will do if you are hit with writers block.
