Unlock the Secret Spark: Unconventional Ways to Ignite Writing Inspiration You Never Knew
Shake up your intake of art and entertainment: Turn off Netflix and visit a virtual museum. Mute your music streaming service and watch some live concerts online. Log out of social media and read a book.
Get disciplined: Sometimes inspiration (or lack thereof) isn’t the real problem. Sometimes you’re just not in the mood to write. Maybe you’re feeling lazy. Perhaps you’d rather be doing something else. Consider whether you need to work on your self-discipline.
Leverage inspiration when you’ve got it: When inspiration strikes, make lots of notes, create outlines, do a brain dump. Then, when you’re feeling uninspired, you’ll have plenty of ideas to work with, and all you’ll need to do is motivate yourself to do the work.
