Between the Bars

When you write do you anticipate too much and try to make things happen?  Do you become too eager for results?

Writers do not have to become trapeze artists and focus on reaching the next bar, then landing on the platform to avoid a fall.  The space between the swings matters more than reaching the safety of the other side. 

Do not become so programmed in a search for perfection that result means everything.  This does not engage the purpose of the writing process. That dreaded feeling of block will arise if the eyes focus too long on the other side. 

Creative Write:  Today fly through the air without thought of catching the bar and reaching the platform.  Write in that space between the bars.
