But for others here's a review...
I'm on Par.nel.l's email list and the bugger sends emails every single day. Talk about overkill.
What this crappy little 3.5 page pdf is, is an onsell for another of his rehashed courses. Which he claims is brand new.
It's a little padded-out few sentences about overcoming writers block. Information available already and everywhere on the web.
He then goes on to keep talking about his new course and if you hurry, you can get it for only $27. But the price is going up to $37. sheesh!!!
His freebie bonuses, which I checked out are ebooks freely available elsewhere. All you do is type in the titles and there they are.
Overall, it's a basic course and something new for him, as he's flogged the bejesus out of his other courses. lol.

I have had the priviledge of learning from top writers in both marketing and book authors. I have personally met many of them.
The number one complaint they all told me they heard was this very issue of writer's block. They told me and I have made this mistake myself until I learned this secret, that there are two reasons fo writers block that go hand in hand. I will share these for the gigantic sum of free.
Reason number 1. Lack of a clear purpose to write. In other words, what is your goal that you are trying to communicate. Wanting to write a book is not a clear purpose to write a book. Wanting to write a book on making money is not a clear purpose. Wanting to write a book on baking a cake is not a clear purpse. A clear purpose is having a specific target to reach. So writing a book about a spy who goes thru betrayal, shot at, drugged, thrown in prison and defies all this to save the world is a clear purpose. Making money using adsense on your websites is a clear purpose. Baking a two layer lemon cake with coconut icing is a clear purpose.
Reason number 2. You haven't done your research. If you have done your research thoroughly you will have a lot to write about. Research is gathering all the information together. Most people try to write off the top of their heads and because they don't have information they are lost.
I know some might feel after having done this they feel overwhelmed with info so now the issue is how to organize it. This is very simple. Start by taking a piece of the research and put it in smaller chunks of related information. Go thru your info and see what can go with what or is closely related and that becomes your book sections or chapters or for articles your paragraphs. Still having trouble? No problem. Go find a dummies book, another book, magazine or newspaper article on your topic and use their table of contents or paragraph topics as your guide to chunk down your research info.
Clear purpose and proper research and you will never suffer from writers block. That knowlege is worth $15,000 and I am giving it to you free.

If the intention is to continue writing additional chapters that the tip is to start a new chapter and just write a few sentences, paragraphs etc. then stop for a break. Not to stop writing when your at the end of a chapter.

It only goes to show that conversations about writing will attract writers,
just as conversations about marketing will attract marketers...
or any related topic that attracts like-minded people.
So it should come as no great surprise that I fancy myself as a fellow word-slinger.
What Kirk777 said is absolutely true - without a clear sense of purpose and thorough knowledge of
what you're writing about and WHY, you'll almost assuredly suffer from writer's block.
The worst thing you can do is to just sit there w/ your thumb up your ass,
'waiting' for some sort of divine inspiration which will never come.
So please allow me to share something that's worked absolute WONDERS for me for years...
And in the interest of brevity, I'll reduce my thoughts to bullet points.
Without further delay, I proudly present to you...
BigDaddy2's Patented Cure for Overcoming Writer's Block:
- Write Your Thoughts/Ideas Out First. Don't worry about what order to put them in yet.
- Write out every bit that you can think of. Brainstorm. Don't dismiss any idea.
- Start writing and Keep writing. Don't stop. Go at least 20-30 minutes if you can.
- Once you're 'in the flow,' keep going. Relax and let your subconscious brain work its magic.
- If you have absolutely NO clue about what you're doing or what to write about, it's probably because you haven't done any research. So go read up on what you need to write about.
- If you've already done the research and still can't think, it's time to take a break. But before you do, ask yourself ONE very important question that, if answered, would provide clarity, purpose, and focus. Then, ask yourself that question and take your break. Go do something completely unrelated, like work out or take a nice walk. Let this question marinade in your brain for a while. Invariably, the answer will come, probably like BAM! Here it is! So be ready for it.
- Just start writing. Edit everything later. Create first, then edit. Don't do both at the same time. Remember: Create First. Edit Later.
These simple tips WORK! I have a lot of other ideas, tips, suggestions, etc., but don't want to throw too much out there right now.
Sheesh, maybe I should do my own d*** WSO! Kirk777, you too! Sounds like we're on the same page, lol.
Anyway, that's all for now, boys and girls. I hope that not only makes sense, but also helps.
Until next time,
BigDaddy2
