Twisty Writing

I think it’s fairly safe to say that I’m blocked and no - it’s nothing that Fibrogel can fix (as far as I’m aware). I have writer’s block, this thing we read of in every single book about writing that only people with writers block ever read. However, I am fighting the block - I have new techniques. Technique number 1 is called Twisty Writing - see example below:

The idea, as the more observant of you will have gathered, is to write in a twisty line. Write anything, just keep writing and don’t stop until you reach the end of the line. It’s a variation on freewriting, except you aren’t confronted with the dreaded blank page - your only target is a line, and any fool can fill up a twisty line with random gibberish. Genius!

There is one drawback. It works really, really, really well if you have a swanky DTP application like Adobe Indesign - but I don’t know any other way of doing it on a computer - though I bet there are many. I haven’t tried it on paper, but I imagine it would be pretty cool.

Anyway, this is my first technique in the fight against writer’s block. You saw it here first.
