    Have any of you ran into writers block in an RP?

    Have you ever didn't know where to start, or where to go with the plot from where you are? I'm in an RP, and I haven't wrote anything yet (not that anyone noticed, it's going slowly) and I don't know where to start. Have any of you ran into this problem?

    Writers block? No.

    Simply lacking the want/will to write? Sure!

    I assume you fix both the same way, though... WITH MUSIC!

    The best choice (or my best choice) to start off an RP which had occurred for a long time is to ask the current RP-ers of what has happened, and actually asked them for suggestions. They will usually give you good ideas, since they know the plot of the story imo (for you who don't know, in my opinion).

    You could also start literally from scratch, just ensure that you are in the right world (correct environment, atmosphere, situation of the RP) so that the current RP-ers aren't so confused.

    Lol. yeah I have. Happens to me every now and then. It's annoying, but when I do have writer's block, I usually take a break from rping for a bit, listen to some music and even ask for some ideas. Sometimes wait for another couple posts in hopes that will give me some ideas. And eventually I'm writing again

    I've never run into writers block in an RP. I've lost the will to carry on many, many times. The fact I'm writing with others usually allows me to throw ideas back and fourth and that for me, is what's fun about writing with others.

    Who hasn't? And anyone who says they haven't had writers block is either 1. in denial 2. a liar
