How do you get creative juices going again once they run dry? I’ve tried walking and pushing through my writer’s block. I’ve tried working on other stories. But I’ve also got one more little trick up my sleeve. News articles!
Articles help give me new information and are quick to read. Plus, who doesn’t love learning something new? I try to stick to science and historical articles because they fascinate me. Today’s batch of articles are heavy in science.
My list includes juicy science discoveries and mysteries. Let me know if any of these articles spark your creative genius. I’d love to hear about your story idea. At the end, I include the story premise I’m writing.
