Writing Hint #32: Change Your writing environment

Everyone can get into a rut with their writing.

One solution is to change your writing environment. Here is a list of some possible places where you can do your writing:

1. In the garden.
2. At the beach.
3. Sitting by a lake.
4. On the grass on a river bank.
5. In your local library.
6. In your local coffee shop.
7. In your local hotel.
8. In a national park.
9. In a forest.
10. In a friend’s house while they are at work or shopping.
11. In a church (but not during a service – though I’ve had some great writing ideas while listening to a sermon).
12. In a swimming pool (not recommended if you are using a laptop).
13. In the bath (forget the laptop here too).
14. In bed.

I think I’ll take number 14 right now – it’s a few minutes before midnight.

Good night and good writing.
