...their writer's block.

Other research exemplifies neurological malfunctions as the primary cause of these factors. Similar to the aforementioned brain lateralization, it's only different in that Malcom T. Cunningham shows how these malfunctions were even linked to trauma both mental and physical.[1] Other more modern ways to cope come from ideas such as The Brand Emotions Scale for Writers (BESW), coming from the basis of the Differential Emotions Scale, the BESW works with grouping emotions into either states or traits and then making those either Positive, Negative Passive, or Negative Active. Researchers can assess subjects with more clarity now, giving writers a better chance to get more work done if left in the right emotional state since the data openly shows the writers with Positive emotions tended to express more than writers with Negative Passive or Negative Active.[2]


Review from Amanda and Caleb

Sources are good. Make the second sentence more clear and use different words from the article that are easier to understand. Explain what BESW means more and add details.

Original Article

Garbriele Lusser Rico's concern with the mind links to brain lateralization, also explored by Rose and Linda Flowers and John R. Hayes among others. Rico's book, Writing the Natural Way looks into invention strategies, such as clustering, which has been noted to be an invention strategy used to help writers overcome their blocks, and further emphasizes the solutions presented in works by Rose, Oliver, and Clark. Similar to Rico, James Adams discusses right brain involvement in writing. While Downey purposes that he is basing his approach in practical concerns, his concentration on right brain techniques speaks to cognitive theory approach similar to Rico's and a more practical advice for writers to approach their writer's block.

Writer's block

I personally would like to be edited based on my wording, and if everything seemed to flow correctly instead of being too choppy with my information.

Review from Sharon and Lauren

  • Tone is professional but a bit choppy in the second sentences.
  • Wording is a bit confusing.
  • Information seems relevant and flows properly.

Review from Amanda L. Ashley C.

- although you need to try to speak in wiki language, we think that the use of such big words could potentially confuse the reader.

- Sentences need to flow a little bit better, they're choppy and make the reader feel as though they might not even be reading it correctly.

- Good points, seem educated and knowledgable

Review from Josseline and Tatianna

The points you made were good and seem relevant. There were some parts that were confusing and need more explanation because the reader doesn't know about the things you're talking about. The source was good.

Kevin and Brie's Review

location and sources look good

you had a typo which we fixed

language uses was a little hard to follow
