Do Writing exercises
Nine ways to overcome writer’s block

Just as you need to get your body warmed up to run, you need a little writing exercise before starting a writing project.

A writing exercise can be almost anything that turns thoughts into words. Make a list of ten rhyming words. Describe the inside of a Ping-Pong ball. There are many online resources that offer free writing exercises and prompts. But whatever you do, do it in a noncritical way. Turn off the editor in your head. The exercise is not supposed to be polished prose any more than a warm-up run is supposed to set a world record.
