I think that Writer's Block is intended to refer to an absence of creativity or at least inadequate creativity. That is a minor issue except I think it would help to differentiate between that and the condition of being uninformed. If the problem is being uninformed then the obvious advice is to get as much information as possible. If the problem is inadequate creativity then the obvious advice is to avoid trying to solve the problem and go and do something else for a while. It is difficult to know how long to stop trying. I need to write some letters to someone on some very personal subjects. It will really help if I can be creative but I have gotten to the point where I need to force myself to do the best I can. If the problem is not being able to write a technical article about a chosen subject then my advice would be to write notes about the technical material. Then improve that and hopefully that will get you motivated. I know that when I have a project I need to start it can take a few days before I am ready to start but when I start then the project provides the motivation.

Great link Vulpes. Ibrahim I would recommend start something new and fresh topic. Don't go back to old topics. This happens to me. Last 2-3 months I has writer's block situation but I was also busy designing new Interface of the site :) Also give yourself a break from computer for a day. If you are sitting at your desk in front of your computer you're forcing yourself. How about writing an Ebook? I just finished an Ebook in SQL Server Compact 4.0. I will send you the almost finished copy to see if you get any motivation. Good luck!

There's a condition known as writer's block (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Writer's_block ) which afflicts people who write books but it's much more likely that having done something totally different you're just finding it difficult to get back into thinking about IT. Before the internet became widely available I used to feel like that whenever I come back from a holiday but after reading up on the latest developments (news/blogs/articles etc.) I'm sure you'll soon get back into the swing of things :)
