Writers: Beat Procrastination

Oops, the post immediately below this one is about procrastination--I guess I procrastinated about giving it a title!

Really imagine it vividly--sounds, sights, feelings. Then open your eyes  and write down the process as you imagined it, in the greatest detail possible. Now you have an instant task list to follow!
