Here’s a neat little site to combat Writer’s block

Are you an person whose paycheck depends on what you write? If yes, then you very well also know what a Writer’s block is – yes the dreaded state, when try as you may, you just cannot jot down any words which make sense. The harder you try, the harder it becomes. While there are many remedies that people suggest to break the writer’s block, here’s a fun page I came across, which might just be what you need.

It works with a dial pad (kind of like a help line) which has various options which present to you various imageries, sentences, thoughts, etc. that you can use to generate ideas. As you can see in the picture, there are many things that you can dial to. You need help killing a character? Well, dial 8. If you need to create a dramatic entrance for your hero, then dial 3.

Of course, this is just a bit of fun. The serious help comes by dialing 0, which takes you to a repository of articles and suggestions from a lot of people, and you can just read away till you break the block that you are facing. Of course, if none of this helps you, then you simply need a vacation. Pack your bags and fly away.

Now if only there was something similar for blogger’s block (which I do believe is different that writer’s block). Any one know anything like this? If yes, then leave a comment. I keep getting this case of Blogger’s block these days.
