Personally, I try to switch genres within my writing when I start to feel tapped out. When all else fails, I fire up the oven and get to baking :)Erin Knightleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09368123673970225476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8884411045598601037.post-26922165602412374862010-10-20T13:20:42.389-05:002010-10-20T13:20:42.389-05:00Amy--I am so impressed with your creativity.

I have forced breaks, and they haven't been creative lately, they've been to take care of a sick baby, a sick husband, a sick me...and round and round it's gone for the last month and a half. LOL! But the best break I ever took was for a 10-day trip to London. I was so inspired when I got home that I couldn't - and didn't - stop writing until the book was done about 5 weeks later. <br /><br />Great post! :)AvonLadyJerricahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14611705826419158520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8884411045598601037.post-16657310485680287212010-10-20T11:05:45.276-05:002010-10-20T11:05:45.276-05:00How fun!

Most of the time it's just a day here or there, but I've had to step away for a few months here and there. If I don't, then I get so bogged down in the rules that I lose the creative flow.<br /><br />Enjoy your time off!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8884411045598601037.post-61660002715117571082010-10-19T22:15:25.447-05:002010-10-19T22:15:25.447-05:00fun stuff, there are many ways to be creative and ...fun stuff, there are many ways to be creative and expressive. I like to take breaks by teaching or making decorative greeting cards. We all need balance and variety in our lives to make it interesting and give us the energy to continue with our WIP. Would love to see your shows.Great Grandma Linhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11791149428495689835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8884411045598601037.post-76389971662421076002010-10-19T20:46:25.179-05:002010-10-19T20:46:25.179-05:00We will miss you but it sounds like you are enjoyi...We will miss you but it sounds like you are enjoying yourself a lot.
