Emma Thomson's writer character Karen Eiffel claims to have writer's block in the 2006 film "Stranger Than Fiction".
What is writer's block?
My two theories:
1. It is the fear of writing something bad, so you end up writing nothing at all.
2. It is all the distractions of your life from your friends, to your family, to your job, to your hobbies, other commitments - everything that takes up time and energy - the same time & energy you need to focus on your writing.
From the Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - Writer's block is a phenomenon involving temporary loss of ability to begin or continue writing, usually due to lack of inspiration or creativity.
