Super super accurate:
Uninspired
Are your pages feeling uninspired? Try shaking up your routine—stroll around an unfamiliar neighborhood or try a workout, outfit, or activity that’s new to you. Your explorations might even inspire a new character or scene! Or check out some writing prompts here to get you warmed up.

So true:
Perfectionist
Is your snarky internal critic sabotaging you? Perfectionism and self-doubt can really take a toll on your word count. Resist the temptation to keep rereading (and doubting!) what you’ve already written, and try some timed writing sprints. You’re better than you think!
Exactly what I am trying to get over. Maybe it would help it I tried to stay on task instead of taking quizzes… hmm

Conquer Your Writer’s Block!
Storyteller
You’re a natural storyteller who struggles to transfer the amazing ideas from your head onto the page. Get comfortable, close your eyes, and watch your entire story play out in your mind like a movie. Once you can visualize it clearly, try creating storyboards to keep you focused. You’ve got this!
This is so true! Not just for stories but also for essays I’ve had to do for school. When I plan, I tend to take longer than I should. I try to also try to make time to write though.

Yup Perfectionist and self doubt! I have lots of outlines and ideas but still I don’t know how to start so I ended up on saying “okay, my brain’s not working, maybe tomorrow is the lucky day.” ;((

🙁 I got excuses. It’s probably true tho. Everytime I start writing I convince myself I could be doing something more important, and then BYE writing, HELLO food 🙂

well, it’s just a little snack!!

Definitely a perfectionist. I’ve rewrote my prologue five times and counting 🙁

I got excuses. . . Should have been more like “extreme self doubt”.
