Working Writer Hat

Most working writers have days when they lag behind on their work. Either the brief they are working on is getting them down - when you have written thirty or more articles on the same subject your writing seems to lose its freshness. It is on days like this that the writer has to remind her or himself that their writing is their bread and butter. You might prefer to be writing about damsels and dragons or cops and robbers, in which case take out twenty minutes and write it out. Once you have done this put your working writer hat back on and finish the brief. Sometimes a short foray into the fiction world can bring back the freshness to your words.
