Dior Mathis, sprinter from University of Oregon

Happy Spring! Spring spells track season. Sprinters position themselves in the blocks. When the gun sounds, they run. No thought - energy and determination push them onward.
Position yourself as a word sprinter and don't think about writing. Sprint across the keyboard or with your best flow pen. Let your words race ahead of your mind.
Try shorter sprints first. Start in the middle of an idea and write to the end of the page. Try . . . and then the car swerved.
Begin again by writing an emotion you'd like to train. Get into a rhythm and write with it for two pages. Stop when you do not want your words to end.
Return to the starting line; this time no blocks. Write about momentum and freedom for four pages. Hit the finish line with your arms in the air!
