A Wicked Case of Writers Block

I am suffering from serious writers block on my seminar paper. It's about assessment alignment and why teachers should focus on aligning their assessments to their students and their learning goals, rather than just using the canned tests from the textbook or from some exam writing software. It's better for the kids if you do it yourself, and ultimately, it's better for you the teacher.

But I just can't get it out on paper!!! I have research, and I have an outline and a semi-decent thesis, but I just can't figure out where to start, and what to say! I'm sitting here crying because I'm so frustrated!

This is a monster paper for me because it is what is going to decide if I am a good candidate for a Masters. It's sort of like writing a Masters thesis, but it's not as long. But it's just as serious, and I think that is starting to wig me out. I know I'll write a good paper, but will it be good ENOUGH for the panel to think I deserve a Masters?

I'm freaking out and I need love and support. And maybe some writing advice.

HELP!

Nay
