Rachel Favilla
I usually go for a walk and listen to music.
Or I'll stand in front of the mirror and tell my imaginary audience a story. How can I get the my message across to them? What jokes or analogies would be helpful to explain a concept? Are there pop-culture references that would totally slap in this situation. Then I imagine them (again, my imaginary audience) laughing (so hard that they are crying) as the analogies get more and more out of hand.
Making others laugh (but also teaching them something important at the same time) is what lights me up like a Christmas tree ... and when I am lit up like Christmas tree I don't have writers block.
