my son and i are Writing my novel as a team. the other day, we tried and tried and tried to work on a scene, but it was like pushing my Ford Excursion uphill. painful. clunky. tiring. we finally stopped. the next day, we went at it again. it gushed out like a flash flood in the desert during monsoon season.
the difference? we found something to Laugh about before we started. we found cheesy lines to laugh at during the writing. i know it's not always that simple, but sometimes that's all you need - to find something funny. to not take your writing so seriously. to get those endorphines going to free your brain.
so, with that in mind, here are some things we laugh at quite often...
-- Calvin and Hobbes cartoons (we have 4 books of them)
-- funny videos - here are links to a few of our favorites
John Branyan - The Three Little Pigs (in Shakesperian)
Tim Hawkins - Things you don't say to your wife
Bane Cat (if you're a fan of the newest Batman series, this will make more sense)
and finally, a picture that amuses me so much i've put it on my computer screen.

now, even if you're not having writer's block, go find something to laugh about. it will make you feel better.
