Hmm... I always find myself on a roll while writing my scripts some days. But most of the time, I am stuck. I know what to write, but it just doesn't come out write when I actually write it. Any particular advice you advise?

please, I need advice on this too!

As long as it's coming out you can always edit it when you read it over for rewrites... What I did when after 30 pages or 1st act of my script is I moved onto something else and just recently went back and it's flowing so smoothly now that I'm upwards of actually having it done.

So either force it and than edit it when you get unstuck or move onto something else ie writing for a series or rewrites of your older work... that kinda stuff.

Just write.  That would be my advice.  Force it if you have to.  Just write and see what the first draft looks like.  You could always go back and edit or do a rewrite or something.  That's what I do.  The worst thing I can do when I'm battling writer's block is to stop writing.  That makes it worse.

If you need a quick idea go to this website:

I don't think there's a hard and fast way to overcome writer's block. It's an insiduous force that must be stopped. But how to stop it?  Beats me.

Writer's block means it's time to read.

Find an issue or a topic of personal interest, and investigate that topic -- and related topics -- until you find yourself following up on things in which you had no previous interest.  Continue investigating new topics until you're lead to something about which you feel strongly, and then express those feelings in script form.

The cure for writers block is to watch a good movie. You will get inspired. Then put your movie on pause and write write write until your fingers get sore.

read lots of scripts whatch lots of good movies. And read books,

O.K. this might sound wierd, but write two scripts at the same time, that way when you get stuck on one script, you can switch over to the other.  then when your stumped on that script, hopefully youll have more ideas for the other.  It works really well for me.

Redeemer said it best:

Quoted from Redeemer I don't think there's a hard and fast way to overcome writer's block.

There is no one way.  Take the suggestions posted here and try to find which one works for you.

Another couple of suggestions:

Go into your bedroom, turn out the lights, draw the curtains, sit in the dark for twenty or thirty minutes, and think of nothing (or think of your characters).

Create a bio for your main characters.  This will be full of stuff that'll never make it into the screenplay, but all of it will affect the way your characters walk and talk.  Plus it gets those creative juices flowing.

Quoted from Rob S. Just write.  That would be my advice.  Force it if you have to.

Of course... Don't go too far!!!

Hey, thanks for the awesome advices, everyone! I'll be sure to try each of them when one doesn't work for me.

When you get stuck and can't go on... Go out and do something, be somewhere, talk to someone, eat alone in a public place full of faces to amuse yourself or just observe your surroundings.

I could never write a thing, had I never experienced anything. Staying inside is the last thing one can do, if trying to be creative in the minds eye department...

So I say if you are having some problems writing... Go out and experience something, doesn't matter what it is and it doesn't matter if you are chalk full of things to do in your daily life, I'm not saying that you don't do things mind you... I'm just saying do something you normally wouldn't do or something you find interesting.

I like going to the Casino's and loosing money, going to the gym, taking hikes, punching a bag, walking around the mall, eating at japanese steak houses are good too

lol. My advice, get away from the casino. Anyway, I get what you're saying. I do that, too. I go out and observe stuff when I need inspiration or whatever.
