Forcing myself to write in five to ten minute chunks. It doesn't matter what I ma writing, even if I am just writing the words "I have no idea what the hell to put on this page." Eventually my brain gets bored with that and comes up with something else.

I think I'd have a better shot at that if I didn't have to write something specific? I might give it a shot but I don't know that I can make the right thing come out.

...though usually when I try things like that I really do just end up writing 'I don't know what I'm doing, here are the words to the song in my head' for five minutes but I'm fucking desperate to be honest.
