Maybe It’s Not Writer’s Block. Maybe You’re Just Negotiating Against Yourself.

Writers talk about "writer’s block" like it’s a wall. Like something outside of you is in the way.

But what if it isn’t a block? What if it’s a habit? What if it’s a pattern?

What if you’ve just gotten too comfortable negotiating against yourself?

You show up for your job. Your family. Your deadlines. Your friends. But when it comes to your writing — the thing that matters deeply to you — you postpone, avoid, delay, and excuse.

You tell yourself, “I’ll write when I have more time.”
“When I’m less tired.”
“When I’m inspired.”

And the page stays blank.

Not because you’re lazy.
Not because you don’t have talent.
But because somewhere along the way, you decided the only person it’s okay to let down in your life — is yourself.

That’s what I help writers change.

I’m Annamarie. I’m a Creative Consistency Coach. And I work with writers who are tired of breaking promises to their creativity.

We don’t hustle. We don’t grind. We build sustainable systems. Emotional support. And writing practices that actually work for your real life.

If you’ve been stuck in the same pattern for months or years… you don’t need more pressure. You need a partnership.

What does that actually look like?

When I work with writers, we start by:

  • Identifying where and how you negotiate against yourself

  • Replacing guilt-driven habits with tools that reward small, steady progress

  • Creating flexible, visible structure you can actually stick to

One of my clients came to me after putting off the same rewrite for almost a year. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to write — she just didn’t trust herself to finish. We built a system that fit her life, worked with her energy, and gave her clarity. Two months later, that rewrite was done.

That’s what consistency coaching really is: not pressure, not productivity hacks — but personalized creative support that helps you finally finish.

What to do next:

You’re not blocked. You’re not broken. You just haven’t had the right kind of support.

And that can change today.
