@LaurenColantoni:RT@kidlitchat:TOPIC: What are your favorite creative warm-ups? What

else do you do to keep your creative engine running? #kidlitchat


@gregpincus:For me... I love to warm-up the writing day by working on poems. It's how Istarted writing Fibs, in fact. #kidlitchat


@delzey:RT@kidlitchat:TOPIC: What are your favorite creative warm-ups? What else doyou do to keep your creative engine running? #kidlitchat


@AnnStampler:Oh dear, I don't actually have any creative warm-ups. Do head-banging &compulsive re-reading count? #kidlitchat


@PBWorkshop:@gregpincusSo, do you have a daily routine? during breakfast, work-out, aftrreading paper? #kidlitchat


@gregpincus:@annstamplerThose sound like warm-ups, to me!! They also work in themiddle of the day, too.... #kidlitchat

@LaurelSnyder:When I need to jump start, I dig into the piles and drifts of old failed files,start revising... #kidlitchat


@WendyMartinArt:I spend some time looking at DeviantArt #kidlitchat


@delzey:i'm usually pretty fired up when i sit down to write, but when i'm stumped i, too,work on poems. cross-out, limericks... #kidlitchat


@AnnStampler:I also find that just sitting in conferences (esp SCBWI summer), I zone out &I'm bombarded with ideas. Creative disinhibition. #kidlitchat


@gregpincus:@PBWorkshopI wish I had a schedule that allowed that regularity. But when Ihave a chunk of time, I always start with poetry. #kidlitchat


@PCrutcher:---> RT@laurelsnyder:When I need to jump start, I dig into the piles and driftsof old failed files, start revising... #kidlitchat


@AnnStampler:@LaurelSnyderYes, going through old stuff is wonderful to jump start, butthin line to procrastination for me. #kidlitchat


@CarolTanzman:Hi, all. I jumpstart sometimes by looking at photos of my settings.#kidlitchat


@ixtumea:For me it really helps to go running in the morning before anyone else is up.#kidlitchat


@KatGirl_Studio:The playlists I make for each project keeps me going. Also I start eachmorning with a browse of DA's main page. #kidlitchat

@KatGirl_Studio:@CarolTanzmanMe too. Images always help to get you in the right headspace, music too. #kidlitchat


@michaelascotto:Good evening, folks! #kidlitchat


@susankayequinn:OMG I actually made it to a #kidlitchat #kidlitchat


@AnnStampler:@KatGirl_StudioI love the idea of each book having its own playlist!#kidlitchat


@ixtumea:If I'm stuck I've been known to read more/or watch a movie. #kidlitchat


@CarolTanzman:I can't listen to music. My hubby's a musician and practices too much soI've learned to tune it out when I'm writing. #kidlitchat


@deegarretson:if I really need some inspiration, I roam around the nonfic section of thelibrary, look at random books, art, travel, history #kidlitchat


@LaurenColantoni:I always start by giving my character, whomever that might be, a name.It always seems to help me get to know them. #kidlitchat


@ixtumea:I also do music playlists. For my upcoming book I listened to tons of Taylor Swift.#kidlitchat


@story_queen:First, I do a brain dump (free write for seven minutes just to unclog theneurons-or whatever-) then I just dig in. #kidlitchat

@ixtumea:I also tear out photos of actors/models that reflect my character. I've even hadanother YA author sketch Jordan for me. #kidlitchat


@Miranda_Paul:@kidlitchatI do a lot of write-for-hire so I 'warm up' by writing a pitch 1st.Makes drafting easier +client already approves. #kidlitchat


@KatGirl_Studio:@AnnStamplermusic is very important to my writing since i see imagesand stories when i hear music. #kidlitchat


@delzey:during my daily jogs i run plot and chapter outlines in my head, repeat dialog until imemorize it, maybe some haiku #kidlitchat


@susankayequinn:@LaurenColantoniMe too! Unless my character is named, I can't evenpicture them. #modelphotoshelptoo #kidlitchat


@gregpincus:@ixtumeaYou should look at Pinterest as a way to collect all the images in oneplace online #kidlitchat


@RuckusMedia:Getting inspirational tips from #KidLitChat tonight


@AnnStampler:@KatGirl_StudioSo funny how different -- at times I need silence to hearwhat's going on in the books, & to hear the sentences. #kidlitchat


@ixtumea:@gregpincusOoh, will look into that. Have problem finding Latino models for myone project. #kidlitchat

@story_queen:Sometimes I write about what I think I want to write about, without actuallywriting it. (Does that make any sense?) #kidlitchat


@ixtumea:I've been known to outline a scene while on my run. Yes, I say it outloud and yes

I get weird looks. #kidlitchat


@Miranda_Paul:I also have a lot of MSS and drafts so I do more revising than new writingthese days - but revising is a warmup itself! #kidlitchat


@KatGirl_Studio:@delzeythat's what i do in the shower or in traffic. Plot out stories or tellmyself them in my head as if I were reading it. #kidlitchat


@LaurenColantoni:I love studying favorite illustrators' portfolios for inspiration. #kidlitchat


@ixtumea:I also will write on whatever I have available if I get an inspiration like I did today.#kidlitchat


@LaurelSnyder:@AnnStamplerMe too, Ann. I can't write with any sound. #kidlitchat


@susankayequinn:@ixtumeaI had the hardest time finding male latino model photos for acharacter! #kidlitchat

@LaurelSnyder:I sometimes listen to music BEFORE I write, for tone/voice... but not whilewriting. Lately it's Leonard Cohen. #kidlitchat

@KatGirl_Studio:@AnnStamplerI can't work in silence, it really bothers me. If there is nosound i start making my own. #kidlitchat


@ixtumea:@susankayequinnI ended up looking at modeling sites. But yeah, it's really tough

without getting into a p*rno site. #kidlitchat


@LM_Preston:Oh yes, they are hard to find. RT@susankayequinn:@ixtumeaI had a hardtime finding male latino model photos for a character! #kidlitchat


@susankayequinn:I try writing the whole novel in a different POV (but in about threeparagraphs). Jars things loose. #kidlitchat


@CarolTanzman:@LaurelSnyder@AnnStamplerYep. I just crave silence. The voices in myhead are loud enough #kidlitchat


@Miranda_Paul:@deegarretsonI go straight to fiction (children's section, usually PBs) forinspiration. #kidlitchat


@LaurelSnyder:@delzeyOh, I do that. Say things over and over, to cement them. But sooften I still forget them. #kidlitchat


@ixtumea:In my sekrit project I have more multicultural characters and yes it was hardfinding good photos that reflect my vision. #kidlitchat


@susankayequinn:LOL! Um, yes.@ixtumea:I ended up looking at modeling sites. But yeah,its really tough without getting into a p*rno site. #kidlitchat

@delzey:if i'm REALLY having problems, i invent fake band names & write blurbs about theirlatest release. or blog reviews. #kidlitchat


@KatGirl_Studio:maybe my fondness for music is cuz I'm also a dancer. without music Ithink my chars would be standing around doing nothing. #kidlitchat


@michaelascotto:I like to read my previous day's writing aloud. It gives me back the rhythmof what I'm doing, where I'm going #kidlitchat


@AnnStampler:@LaurelSnyderOh God,Leonard Cohen.Scary that getting into that spaceemotionally would lead straight to 1968 historical fiction #kidlitchat


@Miranda_Paul:@susankayequinn This also works for PBs, just rewrote one in 1st person@suggestion of my SCBWI mentor + got character insight. #kidlitchat


@ixtumea:Believe it or not watching the entire Roswell the TV series helped me dig deeperinto the whole forbidden love storyline. #kidlitchat


@ixtumea:Inspiration comes in strange places. #kidlitchat


@LM_Preston:I can't write in First person to save my life, it's not fun for me #kidlitchat


@story_queen:@LaurenColantoniWell, I might write, "I want this story to be lyrical, but nottoo whimsical...deeply emotional perhaps..) #kidlitchat


@wendyorr:I use a meditation CD designed for studying; any other music or noise is toohard to tune out for early drafts. #kidlitchat

@AnnStampler:@LaurenColantoniI work best in the a.m., too, altho w/ deadlines I go farinto the night. #kidlitchat


@KatGirl_Studio:@LaurenColantonimy brain is mush right when I get up so i do no brainerthings like checking email. #kidlitchat


@susankayequinn:@delzey@LaurelSnyderi like doing haiku while running because i can usefootfalls as a rhythm //awesome #kidlitchat


@ixtumea:I work best in the morning but with my now very active life, I've had to seizewhatever time is open to me. #kidlitchat

so I can get some peaceful writing time. ;) #kidlitchat


@jessStorkwrites:I like the idea of character exercises in the morning pieces of the puzzlewhere the garbled prose doesn't have to be corrected.#kidlitchat


@kellyhashway:@BrinaCourtneyGood. I don't feel so bad then. #kidlitchat


@LM_Preston:I'm lucky since my oldest daughter (teen) and son beta read for me. Alwaysstick me on dialogue. Also share with peers #kidlitchat


@AnnStampler:@RosanneParryI would love to read the sonnet that grew to Heart of aShepherd! Is it up online somewhere? #kidlitchat


@LaurenColantoni:I write picture books primarily, so I like to keep it simple. Over-thinkingthings can stand in the way of a clear message. #kidlitchat


@KatGirl_Studio:@kellyhashwayMy fiance doesn't mind me doing that, he just goes andworks on his models. #kidlitchat


@KatGirl_Studio:@kellyhashwayThough our roommate does think we are weird. #kidlitchat


@jessStorkwrites:@KatGirl_Studiosounds like a standard artist schedule to me. #kidlitchat


@kellyhashway:@KatGirl_StudioI wish my husband was self-amusing, but he's not. He getsbored easily. #kidlitchat
