I'm not s...That's an interesting challenge. I'm not sure about writing 'better'. But nowadays I'm finding it helpful to stop treating writing my poetry and blogging, as a serious undertaking, or endeavour. Enjoyable writing is when the only thing you want to do is create something for pure enjoyment (yourself and others). There is a childlike, kind of innocent joy in this, and I think Douglas Adams had it. We catch that simplicity. I know he spent many hours lazing in the bath, and drinking lots of tea. Many of the most creative people like Agatha Christie, Beatrix Potter etc, spent long parts of their day wandering about alone, They had quiet minds, got bored, and then got creative. Time, silence... They didn't have TV, Facebook, twitter,hectic lifestyles, but time to think. Spending time enjoying nature is very inspiring.The quietness and pace in nature slows our minds down and - well I don't know quite why, but it makes you more creative anyhow : )Housewife59https://www.blogger.com/profile/12485051347795187632noreply@blogger.com
