Thinking

I was just thinking and I remembered something that my 6th and 8th grade English teacher (same lady both years) taught me.

She always told us that if we couldn't think of something to write, we should write "I can't think of anything to write" until something came to us. As weird as it sounds, it works. I just hope I remember it for my students. I might get rough drafts and journals full of "I can't think of anything to write", but at least they will be thinking and writing...right? :)
