Pay attention to what shows up in your life.
Look for the universal meaning behind your personal experience. Experience life fully to be able to write expansively.
Ignore the inner critic.
Examine the outer critic - improve where you agree and disregard the rest.
Know that everyone has their own writing style and preferences and if you don't like someone's style, don't take advice from them.
Be willing to learn. Push yourself. Be open to input.
Write. Write. Write and Write some more. It's how we get good.

When I'm blocked - it is time to get away from the computer. I find when I focus on other activities - be they organizing, or sewing, or reading, or bicycling or gardening - my mind has a chance to float, which refreshes its flowing ability - making connections and inspirations.
