Going Meta

I attended the AYE conference last year part of which was a writers workshop. This was the most memorable of all the sessions for me; partly because it should me what emotional depths one can access, quite unexpectedly, when writing about something one cares about; partly because it was actually useful for me (unlike many writing workshops I have attended). Anyway, lessons learned: * Write about what you care about * Keep writing * Go “meta” when you are stuck How does “going meta” work? Well, if you care about writing and you are stuck then write about why you are stuck. It will fulfil all the three “lessons learned” and might show why you are stuck. The Ramblings category is my “going meta” category so it might appear quite random. I hope readers might gain something from my struggles :-)
