Hello Scribblers
Many of us may be struggling to find the motivation to write during this ongoing period of uncertainty and worry. It's such a shame when this happens, as the longer you go without writing, the harder it is to get back in the habit.
Penguin are here to help with some writing tips for new (and temporarily stuck) writers.
Follow the link below for some tips and advice, including self-editing and sticking with it.

While you are in the Penguin website, why not have a look around and see what else of interest there might be? You can search through the library of books, find out about the authors and their bodies of work, and have a look at the Penguin blog.
You can even take a (seasonally inspired) quiz to find out which literary monster you might be!
If anyone is interested- I appear to be the Snow Queen- not displeased with that!
There are all sorts of other quizzes you can take, if you are at a loose end!
For those not feeling inspired by writing tips and silly quizzes- there's also a link to some famous literary 'hopeful' quotes, such as this:
"You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them" Maya Angelou, Letter to My Daughter
Remember Scribblers: This Too Shall Pass.
Happy searching and I hope you are inspired to Get Scribbling!
