Book excerpt: The 2014 team directing the XXth Commonwealth Games in Glasgow had declared they would: '... be passionate in our work and encourage flair and creativity in all that we do', and they most certainly were. Is this approach the secret behind the successful and prolific careers of critically acclaimed poets, novelists and playwrights and others who choose to live, work and write in this dynamic and inspiring city? While the rest of us gaze at blank sheets of paper, struggling to come up with a first sentence, the contributing writers from America to Zimbabwe like: Kei Miller, Skye Loneragan, Liz Niven, Ryan Van Winkle all seem to polish off poem after poem and novel after novel. Despite producing work that seems effortless, all of them have straightforward techniques and sources of inspiration for fending off 'writer's block'. In 'Inspiration from Common Wealth of Writers to Boost Creativity', Jacqueline Smith collects personal memories of how the writers got started, who & what inspires them, advice they would offer to other writers and important aspects for crafting your writing. Jacqueline provides her own commentary and tips for keeping the spark alive, plus much more from some of today's best Commonwealth writers who reveal the secrets of their writing success.
