Writing and Healing Idea #36: A Letter for Breaking Through Resistance

If you want to write and you can’t write, and when all else has failed, you can always write a letter—a letter perhaps something like this:

To Whom it May Concern:

I have not written a word in six weeks. Please send any advice or encouragement that you can muster.

Sincerely———-

And then, if you like, you can write yourself a letter back. And you can, if you like, go ahead and mail either of these letters to yourself. There’s something about getting a letter in the mailbox that can give it that certain extra punch.
