Writing Words - writing it is the only way of getting it written

When you feel uninspired and the words won't flow, it may be a good idea to leave your desk for a while and do something that you really don't like doing. Wash the dishes, clean the windows, iron your shirts - whatever needs to be done around the house.

In comparison to these tasks, writing becomes a lot more appealing again. Also, taking your mind off your story for a little while gives your imagination time to work in the background. It is not uncommon that you come up with a really good idea while you are not actively working on your story. Write the idea down immediately, but don't forget to turn off the iron first!

Writer's Notes
Great idea, Sonya! The subconscious mind in action! The subconscious works so much better when we don't try to force it!

Take care!

Thanks, Jeanne! The ideas the subconscious comes up with always amaze me, too. he human brain is such a fascinating thing.

I had a discussion about it with other writers once, and we all agreed that it is vital for every writer to be able to trick their subconscious into cooperation.
