>Do you find it hard to stay focused on your WIP during the summer months? I certainly do. This summer has been crazy so far and I’ve accepted the fact that I will need a little extra discipline to not let everything slide. Of course, there’s nothing wrong with taking a break. In fact, summer can be a good time to do some different activities related to writing and reading. Here are a few things I came up with:
- Go to a writing or book festival
- Visit the home of a famous author in your area or vacation destination
- Write out-of-doors at the beach or park for instance
- Plan a trip to the setting of a favorite book
- Do some hands-on research by traveling or visiting settings from your WIP (take photos!)
- Try an activity one of your characters loves (if it’s not your thing already)
- Take on some physical challenges to refresh your mind and gear it up for writing later
What are your suggestions?
