I like that expression 😀 writing kills the overthinking. If it's not what you wanted to write you can edit.

Writers block is just over thinking.

It has a fancy name for writers.

Hey Yana,

Just read your latest post and it inspired me to use the framework below 👇

Picture this: It’s the middle of the night, and your reader is wide awake, scrolling their phone.

They’re stressed about something. Confused. Searching for a fix.

.... and i created a LinkedIn post with a gif!!

Here's the link if you want to have a look at it - https://www.linkedin.com/posts/copywriting-with-ai_picture-this-its-the-middle-of-the-night-activity-7303750864714776577-iEho

Hope that's ok 🤗

I recently wrote about how Seth Godin doesn't believe in Writer's Block, and he has been writing a daily blog post for 20 years.

Writers block happens to people who don't have a process. But don't get me wrong, deciding what your process will be is 90% of the issue. 😞

This is an interesting observation. I don't have a system, but rather I let a central idea guide me through what might be a messy draft.

Absolutely. Once you figure it out, things come into place

I also think that’s not real :)

I think so too. You can always write about something. Maybe not what you want to write about now, but you can reach that topic in a roundabout way if you go with the idea you can write about at this moment.

Yes, exactly. We’re meant to be creative, all it takes is just thinking in the right direction
