What is Writer’s Block?

Writer’s Block is the name given to the phase of downtime or slowness or sluggishness that seeps in during creative work. Lack of inspiration, frustrations, mental fogginess, lack of sleep, rejections, lack of time due to regular and mundane stuff of routine life all contribute to Writer’s Block.

A lethargy, a fatigue, a distraction from what you are working-on, on a daily basis. Author slows down and may not gather energy to focus on new creation.
