this might sound like a weird question, but hear me out. I'm an art history major, so writing is literally my entire life. I actually love it normally. But this semester, I've hit the mother of all writer's blocks. I have this paper due on Baroque sculpture, and every time I open my laptop, my mind just goes completely blank.
It's like someone erased my creativity. I know the material, I have my sources, I have my thesis... but I cannot, for the life of me, turn it into actual sentences and paragraphs. It's been three weeks of staring at a blinking cursor.
I'm genuinely considering using a personal essay writing service not to write the whole paper for me, but just to... I don't know, prime the pump?
Like, what if I paid someone to write just the introduction and first body paragraph? Something to get the ball rolling, to give me a template to react to and build upon. I feel like once I have something to work with, even if it's not perfect, my own ideas will start flowing again.
It would be like a creative jumpstart. But is that cheating? It feels different from just outsourcing the whole thing. It's more like hiring a brainstorming partner who also happens to write. Has anyone ever used a service this way? Just to break through a mental block, not to avoid the work itself?
I'd love to know if it helped or if it just made me feel even more stuck and dependent.
