Having a proper space allows you to let the creativity flow. Without it, inspiration can be hard to find.

You have to be open to inspiration. If you have a space, time, location, and tools to write, you can create a space conducive to creativity. Draw it if you need to.

Decide where you want to write:

A cafe?

Home?

Inside your room?

Your living room?

A space you mocked up where?

Is it quiet?

Do you need music?

Need a fan or white noise?

Clean up the area.

Tasks that need to be done first, so that your attention is not on those things.

A program to write? Final Draft? Word? Scrivner?

What tools do you need to get started?
