I'm almost
just back from sunny Turkey where I went to get away a little bit and just
focus on one thing, my writing. Many would probably say that what I just did is
called a Writing Trip, when you go off to focus on just their own writing, an
occasion when you go away from everyday life and do a little mini vacation.
But must
such a trip be to a sunny and exotic location? Who can afford to go to Turkey
every other weekend to finish whatever you are writing?
Personally,
I think a writing trip can be done in many different ways. It may be that you
go to your summerhouse, although it would be a cold spring day and the heat is
not running in the house. It may be a trip to the library or even a picnic at
the nearest sea or lake. The meaning of a writing trip is to change the surroundings
and not just sit at your writing desk or writing corner.
Can you fit
a small excursion into your schedule? If not, it is possible to change a bit in
the schedule? I think it works if you just want to.
Therefore I
say; do it! Find a time and go away. Write! And if you do not write, then go
off and read! Change the surroundings and doing something you have long yearned
to do!
