If you're having difficulty getting started on a piece of work or are suffering from the dreaded writer's block try:

  • Using a writing prompt to warm you up - I know I do!
  • Journaling - keeping a journal for half an hour every day - write about what you see, hear, smell, taste and touch - writing in five senses can bring your writing alive.
  • To summarize something you read in the paper - a good exercise in writing tightly.
  • Writing in a different genre
Just try and write something! Then when the words are flowing, you can get back to your real work.

If the writing prompts do not appear above this line, you may wish to adjust your security settings to allow active content.
