⁕ Take a walk, stretch, do a 5-minute exercise. Engage the body in some way and walk away from your desk.

⁕ Dictate using a voice recording app. Think out loud. It can be messy, imperfect, playful, unrestrained.

⁕ Journal into an idea or a question. Journaling allows you to write through and into something. Allow yourself to explore all avenues, threads, possibilities.

⁕ Talk to a trusted friend about your ideas (specifically one that encourages you).

⁕ Try not to edit while you write. Edit when you have a few paragraphs or pages first. Make revision your last step.

Library databases are technologies that you pay for already. Use them!
