CAROL’S TOP TIPS
• There is no such thing as writer’s block. There is writing time and there is thinking time. Sometimes one is mistaken for the other.
• I have found only one fail-safe way to be a writer: place self in chair, switch on laptop and write.
• The online writing community is a wonderful world, full of supportive, helpful people. I have found my tribe on Twitter and Facebook. You will find yours too.
