Ben Yoskovitz, in his brilliant Instigator Blog, writes about beating writer’s block - or blogger’s block, I guess you could say.
Ben’s recommended place to start: commenting in other blogs. When you’re moved by another post, quickly fire off your blog entry. Here’s his style:
“I read it and immediately decided to respond with this post. I didn’t spend a ton of time thinking about it, evaluating every angle or trying to write something perfect. I just wrote it. Quick and dirty.”
Here’s an idea, too: you can go outside the web to, say, a book, and become inspired.

Thanks for linking over and blogging your own thoughts on beating writer’s block.
Reading books is a great idea; I do as much reading as I can, and I can easily get 5-10+ ideas out of a single book worth blogging about. Sadly, it takes a lot of time to finish a book, which is why I think so many people appreciate the speed & ease of the blogosphere…
