What do we need for nourishment? Food. When we eat food, we feel better. Our body feels sustained. It might also depend on what you eat, but that is neither here nor there. Actually, I’m eating as I write this article (Hahaha, no really). But how do we feed our creativity when we’re trying to think of material for writing a story? I’m not talking about writer’s block. I’m talking about putting some oomph into your story, something that stands out to readers. The answer to this question will vary from individual to individual because we are all different. Below are some ideas on things you can do to wake up your creative mind.
- Read books.
- Listen to music (I hear classical music is good for this).
- Do a craft of some sort.
- Put a jigsaw puzzle together. You’d be surprised how much this works.
- Create ideas with some one else. Hey, two heads are better than one.
- Take a drive somewhere that appeals to your senses.
- Look at beautiful photos and imagine yourself inside the picture. Use your senses and describe it.
- Take a stroll through a cemetery.
- Cook/bake something.
- Go to the beach.
WRITE TIME AND AGAIN
