Writer's block is a familiar phenomenon to both students and professional
writers. Perhaps the simplest thing to realize is that you can always
write, even if you're blocked. It's called freewriting. Another
technique is simply listing all the thoughts that come to your mind. After
you've done some of this informal writing, you may in a relaxed fashion reread
what you've written to search for those nuggets that seem promising. In
this example, you can see the student
freewriting about an essay she has read in order to discover her own idea.
