There's been many a plot crisis I've managed to easily resolve after cutting the lawn.

If it's a question of motivation, give yourself an achievable target, for me 500 words is usually not too scary and it means I keep chipping away.

If your mind is just completely blank, then your creative well is probably exhausted and that is the perfect excuse to spend your time filling it with creative material - favourite films, great books, fantastic TV ...

Charlotte Brontë
“No sight so sad as that of a naughty child," he began, "especially a naughty little girl. Do you know where the wicked go after death?"

"They go to hell," was my ready and orthodox answer.

"And should you like to fall into that pit, and to be burning there for ever?"

"What must you do to avoid it?"

Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre
