Avoiding Write Pains

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERARecently my fun physio friend and writing associate, Pamela Heemskerk, and I teamed up to do a series of guest blogs for the ACW blogspot. And what better topic than pain?

Before you run and hide, the point is actually PREVENTING pain by developing positive habits to prevent repetitive strain injuries to muscles and joints. For writers these types of injuries can put a swift cap on the ol’ word count capacity. And wouldn’t it be a shame if we couldn’t share our deliciously creative word-slurries with the world?
