Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Maybe it's your mind telling you to take a break, or maybe there's a plot issue in the story you're currently working on!. Oftentimes if you can't write something, that means there's something wrong with it that you need to mull over for a little while!.

also, the brain just gets tired!. Give yourself a bit of a break! Stretch, take a walk, watch a movie or play a video game!. Then, if you're still having trouble when you come back to your story, what might help is rereading what you've already written!.

An outline also helps writer's block!. If you write down exactly what you want to see happen in your book, this gives you something to look forward to and a map, so to say, of what your book will be!. You don't have to stick to it exactly, of course, but it does give you a general outline, helping you overcome your writer's block!.

Best of luck!Www@QuestionHome@Com

First of all maybe you should take a little break!. After that go for a refreshing walk where you can clear your mind!. While you are walking take in everything you see and see if it sparks your imagination!. Try people watching and see if they are the perfect main character of a new story!. Write a journal and express all your feelings, read it over and see if it could be used as an idea!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Take a Break!.
Go & See a Girlfriend and/or Boyfriend, take a Long Walk, Go Shopping, Meditate while listening to some classical music, Take Up or Go Running/Swimming/Diving/Camping/Hikeing!. Go and play Golf/Tennis/Archery/Shooting!.
Do ANYTHING THAT RELEAVES YOU OF THOUGHT, ON THE SUBJECT YOU ARE WRITTING ABOUT!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Go do something other than writing!

Things you experience when your out and about could very well influence some ideas in your story!.

I write some Harry Potter fanfic once in a while, and I always use experiences from my own day!. Lol, it makes it a little easier to write because you have such a clear image of it!Www@QuestionHome@Com

What are you writing fantasy!? Myth!? Adventure!?!?
Well just sit
and think if you were that person, or a person
what things could you do!.!.!. or see, or feel
Use your 5 senses and come upon your imagination !.!.
maybe walking up to a house!.!.
or smelling something Fowl in the air
or Turning around and he/she was gone!.!.!.
(Use something like that to carry on your imagination)
it helps a lot!!!

take a break, do something else, but keep paper and a pencil handy!. even if you don't get on with the story you're working on, an idea for another one may be forming and that one may need to be completed first!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
