Writing Tip

Take help of 'black hole' creations to overcome daily writing block

First mentioned/ideated by: Ray Bradbury

A black hole is an entity such that once anything in the universe enters it, that thing is lost forever due to immense gravitational force. No eye, human or otherwise, can ever see it since even light can't escape a black hole.

A 'black hole' creation is thus figuratively any creation that you have decided no eye except for yours will ever see.
And similarly 'black hole' writing is writing that you have decided no one but you will ever read.

Since no one but you will ever read your 'black hole' writing, you can start your writing day with black hole stuff without worrying about writer's block getting in the way. No matter how bad your writing is, you can chill; the black hole writing isn't going to be read. Ever.

You are free to put down on paper your worst creations sans inhibition.
And that should get you started on your writing day because you may be able to return to your better writing self later in the day becoming less and less shitty as the day goes by.

This is very similar to the concept of 'morning pages' in which writers put down on paper the first things that come in their head secure in the knowledge that the pages won't be published.

So go ahead and use this concept to overcome your writing blocks and type away to glory.
