Ginger tea works great to fend off the oogies. Grate a tablespoon or so of fresh ginger (or buy the stuff in the jar and use the same amount) and put it in a saucepan. Fill up a big mug of water and pour it into a pan. Put in a wee bit extra because you’re going to lose some liquid in the process. Bring everything to the boil. Boil hard for 3-5 minutes. Strain and add honey or sugar. If you can’t stand it hot, cool it down and ice it (dilute it with bubbly water if it’t too strong). It’ll cure what ails ya! And if your tummy is nervous, it’ll settle that too.

if you try too hard ot be clever, then it always seems to come out as cliche or boring. let the words come out, don’t force them. just write what comes to you…and if bra shopping is it…then immerse yourself in the experience. sit back and close your eyes and remember the tiniest details of the experience…the smell of the store, the feel of the fabrics, the sounds of other people, the A/C in the store, etc. then write what you see…

Feeling that your writing is cliche blows so many goats. In great gobs.

YOu are your own harshest critic; You may write on a cliche subject, but you have a way of drawing out the obscure side angle on it, often quite subtly.

You are a great writer.
