went for months and months and months without running out of ideas for blogging before I hit a wall one day, and had nothing. It usually coincides with other things going on in life, where there’s no room left in the brain for creative… stuff.
I usually go for a walk, people watch, read magazines, draw or write lists to get my blogging mojo back.
My question for you is: Have you ever had blogger’s {writer’s} block? Do you ever get stuck in a blogging rut? How do you pull yourself {and your blog} out of it?
I've blogged every day for a year and a half and have yet to hit a “blocker's block” (knock on wood).
One thing I do is start lots and lots of posts and keep them in a “working” folder. If I don't have anything I'm working on, I'll go through the pile and see if any of those things inspire me.
I guess if you get stuck, you can always do a post about “blogger's block” and ask your readers what they do about it… 😉
Ha ha ha… you're always so funny! Thanks for the laugh. x
Sorry can't help you!!! But once again I love reading your blog 🙂
I am new to the blogging thing, not sure if it'll stick as I am a bit clueless!
I also have a whole heap in my drafts folder – some are just a jotted down idea or a few sentences. I have a couple journal prompt websites bookmarked that I hit if I get stuck as well 🙂
All the time! Generally I go through my photo albums and flickr favourites for something to share
When i have a writer's block i add images that inspire me most or what i love that week until i get new and fresh idea to write about.i'm sure you will be fine i always Love what you write,your blog is always one of my favorite's to read:) xx
nice post thank you very much
I'm lucky because if I have bloggers block I just do an outfit post. That also works if I'm pressed for time.
I have lists and lists of post ideas but ideas don't help on days when my writing juices just aren't flowing. I always just take a break. There's nothing else to be done! Luckily I can spin B.S like a mofo so it doesn't happen to me too often!

this is the exact reason why I have no post today.
I used to go in search of memes to play when the block struck. But then my blog was too full of fillers. I have heaps of drafts of stuff waiting for development but no creative headspace to do it in.
99& of the time I blog every day but sometimes sleep is more appealing. I blog what I think about and since I think a lot I usually have something to write about, not saying I'll win a Pulitzer for it but there's always a piece of my thoughts worth sharing.
if all else fails… take a photo.
What jack said. (I am not as funny though!)
I find it hsrd to blog when I am sad. But force myself to, and usually I find a music clip that lifts me.
YES. Always.
I try not to worry about it, and busy myself with life outside my Mac in the meantime. Then when I think of something blog-worthy, I make a note of it in my phone or on a post-it so I don't forget to write a post about it later xxx
my whole life is one big writers block.
Whenever I get bloggers block, I stop blogging. Then when I'm ready, and only then I'll blog again (i don't want it to be a chore, too many of those already!)
I head out to the garden, and mooch around, and suddenly I find myself pondering stuff.
that usually works 🙂
can't say i have had blogger's block yet, was a hard time when i didn't want/feel like blogging, but not due to lack of things to say…
i would prob pull out your e-book hahaha…
I am having that problem right now! So until i have something “interesting” to write about I have just been joining in other bloggers challenges. Hopefully the blogging mojo back. =)
I have one right now. I can't make up or think of anything.
So I've just been reading other blogs & going crazy following.

I'm in the middle of one at the moment actually. Have been looking for lots of inspiration and found some on internet news sites!
sometimes it comes from the most mundane places.
