Writing sprints are a great way to get words written down on a daily basis. Make it fun! I did sprints during the football halftimes on Sunday. Other times could be

• While waiting for kids to finish lessons or sports

• After putting dinner in the oven (the timer is already going!)

• During lunch or a coffee break

• Between commercials and a favorite show

• After doing three chores and then writing for the same amount of time it took to do the chores.

Or drop everything you're doing right this minute and set a timer. Ready? Set? Go write!

When could you set up writing sprints during your day?
