Posted by
If you create content for Instagram — especially captions, hooks, reels scripts, or storytelling posts — there are AI tools that can feel like your writing assistant, brainstorming partner, and editor all in one place. These tools help you write faster, more creatively, and with less “blank screen stress.” Below are the top AI tools every Instagram writer should know (and how they help you). 1. ChatGPT (by OpenAI) What it’s great for: Clever captions Storytelling & narrative posts Brainstorming ideas Reel scripts Help with tone or message Prompt-based writing direction ChatGPT is the go-to tool for most creators because it responds conversationally. You can ask it for captions in a certain style (e.g., motivational, poetic, humorous, emotional) and even refine outputs until they feel just right. Example prompts: “Write a 150-word Instagram caption about manifestation and patience.” “Give me carousel text ideas about healing money anxiety.” “Rewri...

Artist’s Block is Not a Myth

Posted by



I did not write writer's block this time because no matter what form of art is your forte, you must have faced artist's block, at least, once in your artistic journey.


Artist block is not a myth. It is real and we have our own ways to overcome it.


If I stop working on any of my projects midway, which I do a lot, I get badly blocked and just can't seem to continue that project without a mind loaded with heaps of self-determination.


In her book The Artist's Way, Julia Cameron talks about Artist block and suggest two ways to nurture your inspiration or muse:

  1. Morning Pages
  2. Artist's Date


While I often talk about morning pages, I hardly ever talk about Artist's date, maybe because I never tried or practiced it.


Artist's date is blocking an hour or two every week in which you take your inner artist on a date, no kids, no partner, no parent, nobody else; just you and your inner artist.


These dates don't have to be expensive. You can go out in the park, to an art museum, go for a walk, etc. Nurture your inner artist and the inner child.


I haven't specifically experimented with Artist's dates but even spending an hour walking on our terrace fills me with so much peace and inspiration for art. I seriously write so many poems just by looking at the sky.


Here are some ways you can overcome artist's block:


  • Take a Break and Go on a Walk: a walk can do wonders. I am not even kidding. Just go out and walk around the block. You will feel peace if nothing else and it will be a great break from the stress over your Artist's block.

  • Carry a notebook with you: or your phone's notes app to note down ideas as they strike or anything you come across that can serve as inspiration for your art. Whenever the block hits you, just give flip through these notes and something or the other may strike a chord.

  • Use Prompts: undoubtedly, my favorite way to beat the artist's block is using prompts. I love prompts to such an extent that I published my e-book The Book of Infinite Writing Prompts last year. Prompts help to take your mind off the project you feel stuck on and get you in touch with your in artist once again.

  • Create random Art: every piece doesn't have to be a masterpiece. In fact, a masterpiece is born only after creating and discarding a ton of crappy pieces. So, in Amie's words, create shitty art! Just create anything that you feel like creating whether you later share it or not.

If you face Artist's block, you are not alone. But a block is not forever, it will pass and you will create amazing art again.


Till then, create all the random art that your heart desires to create.
