    Hey we all get writers block at some time!!! Take your mind off it for a while, your readers won't be mad because you need a brake. We all need a while off sometimes. If you've think you've done everything possible that could help, forget about it. don't even go back to it , take it off your mind completely , but befor you do mark your calender or minh that you should read it likein 2-3 weeks. reread it , keep an open mind and hopefully the ideas will be flowing!!!!!!!

    These are a few things I do:

    1) Get some ideas on paper without worrying about how they sound. (You often get Writer's Block by worrying about whether what you are writing is good or bad)

    2) Write a random word in the middle of some paper and branch off as many ideas as you can from that one word. Make sure the word has something to do with the story you want to write.

    3) Let the story sit for a day or two, then come back to it.

    4) Make sure it is something that you want to write. If you don't want to write it, Writer's Block will probably come.

    5) Try starting from another part of your story. If you are writing the beginning, and having trouble, skip to the middle or end.

    6) Or, write about something totally random, just to get you writing. Then, once you are in the writer's mood, you may be able to think again.

    Good luck! :D
