Today, pick one of the other writing exercises in this blog, or one from a favorite book or journal, and do the following, very simple thing: Write Someplace New. If you usually write in a brightly-lit study, try the dimly-lit basement. If you always write inside, try outdoors or a back porch or sunroom. If you always sit on the couch, lie on the floor or sit at a table. If you always write at home, grab a notebook and go write in a park, on the bus, at a bookstore. Get a change of scenery, the more radical the better.
In a few days, go back and look at what you wrote. Write up a journal entry discussing whether or not this brought out anything new and different in your writing, and how.
