Josephine-being in nature definitely helps…actually just being far away from my computer works.

This is great Diane! I am with you, and totally do this too – either completely immerse myself in it (away from the computer!) or I just walk away to take my mind off of it and do something that I really want to do. I did that today – went out and enjoyed the sunshine. When I came back I was ready to rock!

Great demonstration Diane of feeding your mind and spirit with creative inputs and than GETTING STARTED!

Sometimes breaking a creative block is about moving away from your challenge. In your case, it was the "go deep" for inspiration approach. But ultimately, it's about taking steps forward, even if they feel like little steps to get started!

You ask about what readers do to break creative blocks. I did a blog post with 26 ideas I use plus others readers have shared. It might be helpful next time a creative block rears its head!

And a pretty good writer Bill:) A friend emailed me how to get rid of the box. Unfortunately all the boxes are gone. It is time for blogger to make some enhancements to there interface.

The new blogger drives me crazy, too, not that I need that much help. I like the simple name logo, black box or not. Simple is almost always best except when it comes to people's intellect. But what do I know? I'm just a writer.

Comment on NYC: Surtex and The High Line by Diane Kappa

Thanks David. I googled the park and it does resemble The High Line. Maybe a trip to Paris needs to be planned:)

Diane – the highline reminds me that in Paris there is a fantastic park like this:
Promenade Plantée – an
elevated urban park above the shops and galleries of the
avenue Daumesnil just behind Opera Bastilee – also near Gare de Lyon.

Both the above ground and surface level walks are fantastic. The garden in the above ground walk is really cool. Not to be missed next time you're in Paris.
