On writing - just the tip!

Set aside a few minutes each day to get into the 'mood' read 'frame of mind' to pen your thoughts. In expectation of this verbal deluge or diarrhoea, the mind focuses subliminally, all day to result in sense on paper.

Tell yourself your expection from yourself for the eod or end of the day - 10 lines of rational thought. And you'll surprise yourself.

Let the time of day you put your thoughts down be a comfortable time you can afford. Even if it were for just 10 minutes. When you tune your mind, it delivers. Even if it doesn't make sense at the point of time, get the words out. Later you can prune, trim and nurture them into comprehension.

Soon, you'll have a full page , whence once it was blanching white...and that will spur the motion of verbal onslaught. Let go. Not all spoken or written words border on the sensibilities. they need to be fractured into meaning.

So be it. Amen. You'll be looking forward to tappity tap or ink out your thoughts...that's just the beginning.

Rest assured, the starting problem will be replaced by beginner's luck, until...ever heard of writer's block? :-) beware.
