First off I want to say superb blog! I had a quick question that I’d like to ask if you don’t mind. I was interested to know how you center yourself and clear your thoughts prior to writing. I’ve had difficulty clearing my mind in getting my ideas out. I truly do take pleasure in writing however it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are usually lost simply just trying to figure out how to begin. Any recommendations or tips? Appreciate it
Thank you for your comment. Everyone is different but we all have some similarities, you may be just one of those writers who needs to spend 10 to 15 minutes to get going. It’s great practice to write by hand for ten minutes all the crazy thoughts invading your brain at that particular moment. Putting them on paper frees up your mind to creativity. Don’t think of it as lost time, it is just your process of finding your way. Happy writing!
