I’m a Sucker For a Challenge. Here‘s Why

Writing to a challenge, the Series.

Writing to a challenge can feel like a chore, but it doesn’t have to be.

I’ve discovered several ways to organize my thoughts when they all come at once.

Here are all the ways I inspire myself when I’m stuck.

One and done…. not.

When you go down a rabbit hole, doing tons of research on a single topic, you might want to consider writing several articles instead of one huge unreadable one.

Work on them all at once.

When you bring multiple poems along at the same time, it creates a sort of synergy.

It takes a system to be able to manage that, kind of using your right brain along with your left brain.

When the prompts don’t inspire you.

Sometimes I’ve got nothing.

I don’t know about you, but some days I’m tired of the same old prompts.

I’d rather write about a refrigerator than dredge up another inspiring sonnet on ‘connecting’ or ‘reflecting’. (My apologies to all of the inspired writers of interesting challenges. I’m sure you have uninspired days as well.)

That’s when I know I have to get out of my head to get the words down on the page.

Hope you found a couple of valuable nuggets in these articles.
