The 100 word version

When you are feeling stuck on an article, not sure what to write, not sure what to say, try this exercise.

Write a 100 word version of your article. Not an abstract, but a 100 word version with a newspaper or magazine in mind. Sometimes, getting to the essence of what we wish to say helps move us forward.

Forcing ourselves to put words to paper is another benefit of an exercise such as this.
