I’d like a critique
The Classic Car Club of America gave me three assignments about classic car insurance on Textbroker today and I’d like an opinion. This is one, but they’re all about the same, with more about what a classic car actually is on the other two. These were a nickel a word on their end. I took home 3.7 c...

Re: How do you write when you're not in the mood?
One thing I do is start writing absolute stream of consciousness. Use an open like in Leaving Las Vegas or something… “We were somewhere out past the county line when we saw the body.” or similar and just write gibberish that doesn’t have to make a story, create a real paragraph or anything else.
