As for awkward times to get ideas, mine are nearly always when I'm in water - in the shower, swimming and so on. Not exactly convenient but it is how it is!Allison Symeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05480799246770738134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1643092331729126387.post-25655904445721715582017-02-05T21:45:59.880+00:002017-02-05T21:45:59.880+00:00Thanks, Fiona, I do too.

It's helping.

Either I have too many of them to think straight, or I'm stuck for inspiration.

I hardly feel qualified to comment among such company as you and the earlier commenters, but sometimes it is necessary to stand back from what we are working on (or feel we ought to be working on) and look at the bigger picture prayerfully. If we go on working all the time (which is a temptation for creatives, as was highlighted on Music Matters on radio 3 yesterday) we are likely to suffer from burnout or similar problems.

But, having just finished a huge non - fiction project, I find I'm in a dry period novel-wise and blog-wise. Am I running away from them or just in need of a long-earned rest? Who knows? Well, God probably. Perhaps I should stop running and actually ask him 😉 Great post Jane xDeborah Jenkinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11156120348177986321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1643092331729126387.post-6184092316831553692017-02-05T08:56:57.566+00:002017-02-05T08:56:57.566+00:00You are so right.

I have several projects I need to finish/work on and yet yesterday I spent the entire day writing an entry for a competition I hadn't even intended to enter. Still, as procrastination goes, at least it wasn't ironing or sorting out the sock drawer, and, who knows, it might reap a reward *hopeful face*Fran Hillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07935088780461825341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1643092331729126387.post-3598332985431883832017-02-05T06:56:26.586+00:002017-02-05T06:56:26.586+00:00You've summed this up perfectly.
