Creativity is everything in writing. Most of the advice for writers is to write about what you know. All well and good, but the truth is most of us don't lead exceptionally interesting lives. Or, do we? Over the past year my own life has taken a few interesting turns that could certainly not be regarded as dull or lacking in creativity.
Many exceptional things have happened in my life since initiating this site. I've visited New Guinea, ran my first half marathon, visited China, relocated, started a part time yoga bussiness, trekked several mountain tracks and began singing in a local choir.
It shouldn't be too difficult to find a creative writing edge from this list of interests and experiences. Let's see if a renewed commitment to write leads to more creativity this time.
