Get Unstuck with Your Writing by Walking it Out!
by Rebecca J. Clark @RebeccaJClark
Growing up, I hated any form of exercise, even leisurely walking, unless that leisurely walk took me to the ice cream store or Starbucks. Or both.
I started walking when my kids were small because if I put them in the stroller and gave them a lollipop (I know—bad, bad mommy), they wouldn’t scream or otherwise make my nerves go taut as a violin string for at least 20 minutes. I knew for at least 20 minutes every morning I would have peace and quiet, time to gather my frazzled thoughts. Soon, those walks became addictive. Sometimes, I went for two walks a day. Sometimes even three, depending on whether or not The Toddlers felt like napping.
