What to do when super blocked?
There aren’t any rules to what you can and can’t write about – the key is to put aside 15 minutes then just start. But crucially:
Don’t stop to consider your words – write anything that comes into your head.
Don’t wait for a beautiful first sentence to appear – just start with whatever’s in your head.
Don’t edit your words. Freewriting is all about the words flowing out of you – don’t look back.
Don’t judge your work – freewriting isn’t about getting beautiful prose down on the page it’s about exercising your creative muscle.
So, don’t let your inner critic – your worst possible writing buddy – get the better of you. Book in a daily splurge of writing to get the creativity flowing again.
