A day among the bluebells: how nature nurtures creativity

We are so lucky to live and work in such a beautiful part of the world. A quick lunchtime walk locally is a way to recharge the batteries, keep work stresses in perspective, and take time for the important thinking and digesting stage of writing.

In the early stages of a big writing project it can feel you are surrounded by so many words, so much information, it’s hard to know where to start. But quietly at the back of your mind, cogs are whirring.

Sometimes a good night’s sleep will do it. Sometimes popping out for a coffee.

But there’s nothing quite like a bit of fresh air, sunshine, and nature to really open up the creative part of your brain and let the ideas take shape.
