Inhaltsangabe:

Writer's Block Workbook 5 features over a thousand sentence starts, three per day, with writing tips at the end of eachweek to motivate and inspire, providing kick-starts to avoid the dreaded ‘writer’s block’. Each week is formatted with three sentence starters from the following points of view:•Day 1: ‘first person’•Day 2: ‘second person’•Day 3: ‘third person’•Day 4: more ‘first person’•Day 5: more ‘second person’•Day 6: more ‘third person’•Day 7: ‘any viewpoint’ where you can literally choose first, second or third person from the sentence starter options.At the end of each week there is a tip that mostly come from one of the day’s starts but not always. You’ll see most third-person sentences don’t have names in case they influence your story.Why three sentence beginnings per day? Two reasons: one alone may not be enough to grab you and I don’t want you to sit there as stuck as you were before you read it. With three to choose from, you have more of a chance to find one that you can continue. Secondly, if you have a bit more time on your hands, you continue two or all three of them. Or use them in the same story. Now, there’s a challenge.Each sentence start is given as an example; if you find that as you write, you’d like to change anything about it, it is entirely your choice.
