Muse Food – If You’re Creatively Stuck

By Cynthia Sax on August 10, 2026

If I’m creatively stuck, one of the things I try is

using another ‘tool.’

This ‘tool’ could be switching to handwriting for a bit. And then using pens with different colors of ink (different colors stimulate different parts of our brains).

This ‘tool’ could be moving from the writing cave to a busy coffee shop.

This ‘tool’ could be writing the scene from the perspective of a different character.

There are countless tools we can use to stimulate the muse. If you’re creatively stuck, try one!
