...Great blog, Sarah, and thanks for visiting mine! <br />Waiting for inspiration to write is useless. I find that if I apply the "Just do it" philosophy and start writing, inspiration will come. Sure, the first 500 or so words will be meaningless garbage, but then I start getting into the zone and I actually produce something slightly better than garbage. And when I'm on a roll, few things manage to distract me - email pop ups, children asking me for food etc.Jo-Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15705983780352542190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3554125151787997248.post-45116987413092615142011-11-22T11:20:38.997-08:002011-11-22T11:20:38.997-08:00For myself it is very similar.

No popups from email coming in. No quick refresh of Facebook or twitter.SBJoneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10457239074744509487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3554125151787997248.post-27618271570797707672011-11-22T10:37:56.816-08:002011-11-22T10:37:56.816-08:00I also do the classical music thing but on Pandora...I also do the classical music thing but on Pandora! I've found if I go in my bedroom and close the door (which I barely ever do) that signifies that it is time to write.
