Spring Clearing


March breezes cleanse the air and attract bird song. The Painted Lady butterflies emerge from cocoons to roam leaves and flowers.

Soon spring activity will arrive in full force.  Get ready.

Does your writing environment need clearing to prepare for spring's inspiration?

Begin with your work space:  Look around and de-clutter.
       
        Dig into obsolete file folders.  You may discover gems needing polish.  Put them aside.
        Eliminate files of rejection slips.  Write, "Their missed opportunities."  Toss them.
        If you have a shredding machine, activate it. Gather old bills, letters, papers,  Shred. Shred. Shred.

Begin to translate your paper ideas to the computer for ease of retrieval.  Start with one piece of writing a day.  You'll amaze yourself.

Go for clear surfaces.  Clear. Clear. Clear.

You're ready to write beyond the process of eliminating clutter.  Write into the ideas that flutter into your pen.
