Jump Start


This is good for when you’re feeling a bit burnt out with your project. Read something utterly indulgent. Whatever you want. Genre, kids lit, whatever you love. For half the time you planned to write today, sit on the couch, or wherever your coziest place is, and let your mind be taken away. Maybe you can get away with an hour. Then take that feeling of being swept away with you, and carry it over to your own work. Put the fun book down and write the most compelling thing you can think of that is still to be written in your current project. Forget continuity. Just jump in.
