Things to try out when you're stuck

You’re telling someone this
You’re telling yourself this
You’re commenting on how it is
You are someone else
State things, don’t explain
Be more descriptive
Be only descriptive
Try never writing the word ‘I’
Try only writing the word ‘I’
Only talk about emotions
Only talk about practicalities
Use more simile
Use more metaphor
Use ONLY simile
Use ONLY metaphor
Try to avoid clichés
Try to use ONLY clichés
