Author Sally Piper’s quotation is a writer’s block-buster:
“Procrastination is a defence mechanism.  It allows us to avoid the terror of other people reading our work.  It protects us from criticism.  It keeps us safe from failure” and I would like to add “it stops us from growing” so don’t let procrastination dictate the terms.

Mindfulness blogger David Cain of Raptitude wrote:
“It turns out procrastination is not typically a function of laziness, apathy or a lack of work ethic, as it is often assumed to be.  It’s a neurotic self-defence behaviour that develops to protect a person’s sense of self-worth.”  Don’t put it off, your writing is always better than you think!
