Taking a walk is a great distraction from writing. But it's just that: a distraction. If you're writing something long, like a book, you don't have time for such things. You have to learn to be productive every day. You have to think of what you're going to write next when you're eating lunch, going to the bathroom, and any other break you take. Yes, sometimes you simply cannot go on, and must push back from the keyboard, or rip your own eyeballs out. But if you get used to thinking this is a good thing, you will never finish your writing.

I don't understand your question.
If you want brutal honesty, I think a lot of the article writers here could learn a thing or three about how to write articles, from my articles.

You may not agree, but that doesn't make me any less correct in my claims.

Are you suggesting that all or the vast majority of articles, in terms of communication and not code, are excellent?
Or something else?

I have an article in the works that should be published as a SyncFusion e-book. It's easily going to hit 100 pages in Word. 
What started out as "this looks simple enough" turned into anything but tedium. Confusing spec, many things poorly defined, some things contradictory, lots of research into what other people have done to resolve issues, which meant separating the wheat from the chaff, and there's a LOT of chaff out there in various implementations.
But, I'm quite enjoying the process!

Both are in their right mind.
There are two kinds of people in the world: those who can extrapolate from incomplete data.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.
