    question in which I’d like to ask if you do not mind.

    I was interested to know how you center yourself and clear your head prior
    to writing. I’ve had a difficult time clearing my mind in getting my thoughts
    out there. I do take pleasure in writing but it just seems
    like the first 10 to 15 minutes are generally lost simply
    just trying to figure out how to begin. Any recommendations or hints?
    Thank you!
