Top Tip No. 6 - Try something new

Sometimes, you just need a change. If you don't normally post audio, why not record yourself reading a favourite poem, or a passage from a novel, and share it on your blog?

Or get out your smartphone and shoot a two-minute video of your workspace. Better still, get someone else to do it, freeing you up to appear in the video and talk a bit about your working process.

People are fascinated by where and how writers go about their work. Or you could simply post a photo, like a Facebook update - quick and simple.
