“Finding Your Voice as a Writer” by Michelle Barker via Writers Helping Writers #amwriting #writerslife #WritingCommunity #writingadvice #writingtips writershelpingwriters.net/2023/11/find...

Writing Tip:
As an exercise... get some exercise! Do a physical activity that doesn't require too much thinking. Something repetitive, like running on a treadmill. Then, let your mind drift to your story and see if it sparks ideas! Do it safely, though!
