Broken through writer's block this morning, at last. Used the SIA timers to ease back into the story, starting with 5 mins and upwards from there.

β€œWell done! I love the SIA timers. I do ladder sprints to get things flowing, starting with the 5 min timer.” – Millie
β€œThat's great! That's what those timers are for.” – Craig
β€œMillie, that's a great idea. I'll try that. The timers really calm my mind, so by the 15 min sprint, words were actually transfering to the page.” – Anne Lown
