Carlos Hernandez was very insightful and genuine during the class visit. He was very honest and his advice about writing and being persistent was motivating. He spoke about his recently publish book by Disney and his future project with Disney, finishing his second series. His advice about writers block stuck with me long after the visit. He insisted that writer’s block isn’t actually a loss of idea, it’s the fear of writing something bad. His advice was to just write, despite hesitating that it won’t be perfect, writing anything will allow the mind to flow with more and better ideas. I had never thought about writer’s block from that perspective and I found that really insightful.
Often times, I would have to write essays for my classes and there are moments that I have no idea what I was writing and I would just be stuck with a blank page. His advice about just writing anything was very helpful to me in my recent essays. I just started writing anything I believed that related to the topic which resulted in a concise and coherent essay. There’s no doubt that his advice would help me become a more confident and better writer.
