Writers Block Stinks! Got Any Remedies?

[Nylon 158]

It's been like a week or so now since I've managed to complete a page to this webcomic series that I've been wanting to do. I'm only eight pages in and each page took around 2 to 3 hours to make and the hold up as the title of this post would assume is that I don't know what I want to put down next.

 

Perhaps it will help if I just share the comic right here: http://garysmodx.deviantart.com/art/Jack-and-Mack-An-Average-Day-Page-1-599359453?ga_submit_new=10%253A1459118574

 

It's about the life of these two cops named Jackson Armstrong and his just as butch sister Mackenzie who work at this new branch of authority that handles super villains and monsters known as the Licensed Crimefighting Foundation. In this first issue or episode or whatever you want to call it Jack finds out that the newest recruit is none other than his sister who's been in jail for a couple of years for causing a giant traffic accident after jay-walking in a hurry to use the bathroom. Right I've gotten to the part where Jack gets ready for work and we're going to be introduced to a whole lot of stuff like the workplace, the other recruits and so on.

 

And there's the problem, my mind just can't decide on where to start or what to do. So I ask you, what remedies are there for me to overcome this problem and to make myself able to continue this comic?

Without a doubt, I suggest you put some Mystery Science Theatre on in the background. A lot of people report having that show playing while they're trying to do things helps, because the movie audio and riffing easily becomes white noise and lets them focus. Or heck, the movies/jokes could become inspiration themselves.

 

You can probably find episodes if you Google.

I find toothpaste works really well. Just take a little and put it in your mouth.

Whenever I have writers block, I will put my on some music-usually from the fandom- and just start sketching or writing something until I get an idea.
