Tip: Go for a walk or do other exercise for at least ten minutes—more is better. Do this especially if you’re stuck on something. Fresh air and movement gets the blood flowing – and wakes up the brain.
Jumpstart: Your house is haunted. Who is haunting you and why? Are they friendly? Or evil?

I had to give some thought to the Herman Charles Bosman quote and find that I somewhat disagree. I think without the story, you have nothing to write and if the story is not written well, you’ve still got nothing. Thanks for the pause for reflection, Vicky!
