Today I confided in some good writing friends that I am having trouble with my creative spark and do you know the advice that they gave me...'just write'.
Just write anything, anything that comes to mind. Write for 5 minutes. Write 500 words. Write with the computer screen turned off. Write without editing.
I can tell you this advice is invaluable. Today I have written 700 words without even thinking about what I am writing and I am starting to think that I am onto something.
I have found that I am writing what is close to my heart. Things that I had never thought to write about before. It is amazing what is in the back of our mind.
