This can be a deceptively powerful exercise. Give it a go. Keep an open mind. My limiter was hiding right in front of me. ☺ #writer #writingcommunity #writing #creativity

Take a moment for this reflection. Stop and listen. Make a note of what comes up – without judgment or censoring, just allow. #writer #writingcommunity #writing #creativity

Writing is an anchor for my wellbeing on all levels, and for my sense of self with its tides and shifting shades. Deeply, it’s a guide to what I hold to be true and right in an erosion of certainties. What’s yours for you? #writer #writingcommunity #writing #creativity

Write a love letter to your writing, or a letter of gratitude, even of complaint – see what comes up. Make a note of anything unexpected or valuable, of any insights. #writer #writingcommunity #creativewriter #writingtips

This is another one you can do in one sitting or add to over time. The trick is not to censor yourself, or pass judgement on what you write – this is for you alone, you can write what you want! Keep it to hand. We’ll be working on this again. #writer #writingcommunity #creativewriter #writingtips

Underlying my work at Writer Revealed is the unwavering belief that you know the answers to most if not all of your writing conundrums – I hope my questions act as a catalyst for you to mull over, that they send a spark to your inner wisdom. #writer #writingcommunity #writingtips

Harness the power of your imagination. The trick with this one is to keep your destination in mind whatever distractions appear along the way. Maybe at the end you’ll feel able to write a step-by-step plan of how to get there? #writer #writingcommunity #creativewriting

Here's a thought exercise about finding your voice. I think there are two levels to this – being you with words, and honing in on what makes your writing unique. #writer #writingcommunity #creative #writingtips

The trick with this is to approach it from the inside-out, not from the outside-in, like someone telling you what to do. Check in with yourself, be present for a moment or two. What comes up? What do you need? What will support you? #writing #writingcommunity #creativewriting #writer

Self-explanatory. Potentially enlightening. I’m committed, but my writing relationship is not balanced currently. It could benefit from more attention ☺ #writer #writingcommunity #writerssupportingwriters

A fun look at technology changing the writing world. I asked chatgpt to write me a sequel. It came back. Trite. I told chatgpt it was derivative... we're working on it :-) Is AI impacting your work as a writer? @theguardian.com #writer #writingcommunity www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

“Nothing is either good or bad, but thinking makes it so,” says Shakespeare's Hamlet. Continuing with labels. I invite you to soften the edges of your understanding of words – those that strike a chord, as well as those that feel uncomfortable. #writer #writingcommunity #writerssupportingwriters

Spend a few minutes today expanding your writing horizons. What do you want from your writing? How might you get there? #writer #creativewriter #writingcommunity

There's no right or wrong to this but focus heavily on 'product' at the start of a project and you may tie yourself in knots, restricting the project’s full potential; while a focus at the end on how the writing lands with the reader is a good plan. #writingtip #creativity #writingcommunity

A walk through a tangle of branches in a frosty wood provided the inspiration for today’s prompt. The aim is, over time, to free up your thinking and creativity, to provide a solid foundation for your writing. Freedom is a good thing. #writingtips #writingcommunity #creativity

I absolutely recommend this. It's affordable and the advice is priceless. OPENING TONIGHT. Even if you've not got a finished manuscript, you will still hone your ideas and learn a lot. It's a shot of energy in the arm too! #writingcommunity #writingtips #writer getabookdeal101.com/pitch/

Labels. Crafty little words we attach to ourselves, to our writing… it's worth every minute of your time to get to know your own label collection. I hear them when I talk to other writers, it’s harder to see them in ourselves. They hide in plain sight. #writingtips #writer #writingcommunity

Breaking a piece of writing down can let the light of new ideas in. Give it a go. If you're new to Writer Revealed, I’m Elizabeth Ferretti, writer and writing tutor. I set WR up to help writers untangle knots in their relationship with their writing. #writer #creativewriting #writingcommunity

Here's a habit that, over time, will add amazing things to your writing practice. Don't underestimate its power! Today’s invitation: Take a piece of writing, underline, circle or note anything in it that interests you, that you think has potential. Repeat this practice. Often. #writer #creativity

WEEKLY RECAP Over years of teaching creative writing, I’ve learned to listen to how writers speak about their writing – it’s so revealing! I recommend these awareness experiments to all writers, at whatever stage in their writing career, and to revisit regularly to chart any changes. #writing

Awareness is a phenomenal tool for the writer. Not just in feeding inspiration, but in learning to understand your own relationship with your writing (which is what Writer Revealed is all about). Today’s invitation: Practice being aware of how you speak and think about your writing.

The psychology and neuroscience of creativity is a particular interest of mine (I'm on a Master's programme on psychology, neuroscience and mental health). Along with my writing prompts, I'll be posting the occasional piece/article on this topic. #writing #creativity www.apa.org/monitor/2022...
