I think this is the best place to post this, but I was going through my saved posts before deleting my Reddit account and thought that a lot of writers on Lemmy/Fediverse might be able to enjoy this one.

There's some great tips in these comments but this archive snapshot will make sure that information isn't lost.

Feel free to add your own tips here in the Fediverse as well!

Glad to help, and I have another.

When my brain gets a certain level of fuzz when I try to concentrate, I go take a quick nap. Sometimes it's longer than 'quick', but that means I really needed sleep. But much of the time, I really do just need that brief bit of rest and reset to let my brain chill.

Alternatively, I'll go take a shower, or deliberately take a break from writing to take care of a household chore. Just, do something to break things up.
