If only that output could go straight into the text editor. :)" Haha! That reminds me of a Donald Duck story I read once. Something called a ThinkOMatic® that recorded everything that you thought. The result was disastrous for Donald but I think it would be neat to try. ;) Unless I am writing a post that really needs to get done, I just take a break from that post and work on something else. Either that or I'll stop, go out and practice martial arts and come back later. :) “I am a huge fan of “walking it off”… in fact, I often write entire posts in my head that way.

Sat, 16 Jun 2007 16:27:38 +0000 http://www.copyblogger.com/how-to-start-writing/#comment-65134 I was thinking very literalistic when I read this article's headline so I immediately perked up at the notion of some new site that offers synonyms & antonyms. I often find that looking up a word or phrase on <a href="http://thesaurus.reference.com/" title="Lexico's Thesaurus.com" rel="nofollow">Thesaurus.com</a> will jostle my brain into gear. But that site's pop-ups really aggravate the piddle outta me! But, to the true topic of the post, I've found that I do much better composing blog posts offline (well, actually, I've been using Google Notebook quite a bit lately, so that's not exactly offline, is it?) and then revisiting the entry a time or two before posting & publishing it. I do hammer out quick & dirty spontaneous posts from time to time, but not often. I've found that I get waves of blog inspiration, so I work up drafts and then let 'em simmer for awhile. This has come in handy for getting me out of a bind when I have dry spells.

So when I'm stuck I'll experiment with, say, jaunty, energetic, manic, soothing etc. As soon as I hit the right tone for that article or post, I can't write the words down quick enough.
