I find that when I'm stuck trying to write something, I go back and look at what I just wrote. Then, instead of moving the story forward, I take the same scenario and write it in another character's perspective. This allows me to keep “those creative juices flowing” and also develop other characters and make more than just the main character dynamic and round.

And then they do it anyway. And we all sit and read it and the cycle continues. That's fine with me.

I'm not going to be the one to say he's right, but he's right.

I think the great writers, even those who write solely online content, have taken this advice to heart in order to get where they are today. My guess is that if you write a lot, you probably also read a lot. They kind of go hand in hand. So, to the end, every time they sit down to write they must immediately think to themselves, "wait a sec, I've read this somewhere before."

"Why am I going to spend an hour writing on something that's already been written on?"

And then they do it anyway. And we all sit and read it and the cycle continues. That's fine with me.

Great writing is a commodity these days. I think the differentiator is experience. I would much rather read something from someone's who's actually been there and done that than from someone who just writes as if they had. The reason is because every experience is unique to the person who experienced it, and therefore their expression of that experience has no choice but to be unique - and in turn so will the content.

Now I just need to practice what I preach... the hard part.
