Plurk Your Way To Action!
When creativity, inspiration, or motivation are floundering it can be hard to push yourself into action. Do you have your own techniques to restart your writing engine? How do you push through your lull periods to continue creating content and churning an income from Freelancing?
One of the means I’ve discovered recently is Networking. It’s vital to keep ties with friends and associates who can build your esteem, offer encouragement, and can commisserate in the hard times.
All writers have been to that dark place where words feel dredged through thick mud. While motion creates momentum, stagnation tends to continue to stagnate. It’s important to surround yourself with people who are uplifting and inspirational.
Recently, I discovered Plurk. It’s a social media network where you can connect with others, chat, ask questions, share your interests and links, and establish friendships with people around the world. Social connections offer a charge of energy that can build into action if you allow yourself to go with the momentum Plurking creates.
From writers sharing their latest ideas, blog posts, acceptances, rejections, to do lists, accomplishments, and celebrations, you can gain a warm encouragement that pushes you onward.
I’ve found that and more with Plurk. In fact, it’s thanks to a friends own Plurked Writing Bursts that I bring this post to you at last. I know, it’s still uninspired, dredged through mud, but it’s a step forward, and with one step forward we begin the momentum that makes each future step easier to take.
Come join us on Plurk, or find your own social connections online and off. If you share your writing journey, roads and round-abouts with others you can create a memorable trip and avoid asking, “Are we there yet?”
