Q: Brainstorming can allow for the introduction of new ideas that weren't an original part of your plan. They can also help you get over writer's block at any stage of the writing process. Go somewhere you enjoy being, such as a local coffee house with a great vibe, the beach, the woods, your favorite reading corner. It's important to feel comfortable and at peace. If you're working with a friend or group of friends, find a place where you all feel comfortable and can speak freely without feeling self-conscious. Even when resting you can brainstorm. Lie down when you're tired and think about your novel and let the ideas run freely. Let the ideas flow freely, and don't stifle any of them. You never know which newly surfaced idea might develop further. Record all of the ideas as best you can (writing, recording on a device, filming, etc.). Which ideas have traction? Allow these ones to flourish and turn into real elements within your novel.
A: Use brainstorming for ideas and for moving past blocks. Brainstorm alone or with others. Focus on the part of the story needing new ideas. Allow the ideas to percolate in your mind for a few days afterward. Repeat as often as needed.

Q: Stretches alone will not resolve an issue you have with carpal tunnel, but combined with effective treatments, they can help you to relieve moderate symptoms. The prayer stretch can help you to increase blood-flow to the median nerve. Try the prayer stretch for early relief of carpal tunnel pain, and to reduce sensations of numbness and tingling. Begin with your palms pressed together in front of your chest, below your chin. Slowly lower your hands (still pressed together) downwards, keeping them close to the stomach. When you feel a moderate stretch, hold this position for 15 to 30 seconds. Repeat two to four times. The stretch should cause no pain. If you feel an increase in pain or numbness and tingling in your hands, then stop the exercise and see your doctor or physical therapist. Stretching your wrist flexor might help. Start by extending one arm forward, parallel to the floor with the palm facing the ceiling. With the other hand, bend the fingers down towards the floor. When a stretch is felt, hold for 15 to 30 seconds. Switch arms and repeat two to four times. If it is not possible for you to straighten your arm out, then you can also do this stretch with your elbow slightly bent. Extend one arm forward, parallel to the floor with your palm facing the floor. With the other hand, bend your fingers down towards the floor. When a stretch is felt, hold for 15 to 30 seconds. Switch arms and repeat two to four times. If it is not possible for you to straighten your arm out, then you can also do this stretch with your elbow slightly bent. Wrist circles can help you to decrease tension in the fingers and flexor tendons. Clench your fists then release the index and middle fingers, pointing them straight. With the two fingers draw five circles in a clockwise direction, then another five circles in a counterclockwise direction. Alternate hands, but repeat three times with each hand. Squeeze a tennis ball or something similar to help you to increase mobility of the entire wrist. Using a pressure or stress ball can help alleviate carpal tunnel pain as well as provide stress relief. Gently squeeze the ball for five seconds and then release. Then switch to your other hand, and continue alternating. If you don't have something to squeeze, make a fist and hold it for five seconds. Release, and then repeat five times. Switch to the other hand and repeat. If a tennis ball is too difficult to squeeze, then try squeezing a soft stress ball or even some clay. You can help strengthen your wrists and potentially release tension by performing some weighted wrist curls. Take a light weight, a can of food is good to start with, and hold it in one hand. Hang your hand over the edge of a surface, such as a bench, table or your lap. Your palm should be facing down. Make sure that your forearm is supported. Then slowly curl your wrist up, hold it for a moment and then slowly bring it back down. Repeat this for 10 repetitions. Then turn your arm over so your palm is facing the sky, and do ten more repetitions. You can also use a resistance band in a similar manner. Place your forearm on a surface, such as a bench, table, or your lap, but allow your hand to hang over the edge of the surface. Then, place the other end of the resistance band on the floor and secure it under your foot. Then, complete the curls. You can adjust the 'tension' on the elastic band by increasing or decreasing the length of the band.
A: Do the prayer stretch. Stretch the wrist flexor. Stretch the wrist extensor. Do wrist circles. Squeeze a ball in the palm of your hand. Do weighted wrist curls.

Q: A personal narrative should focus on something that was pivotal or meaningful in your life and also connects to the prompt you are addressing, if applicable. Ask yourself, "What events in my life stand out the most for me? What events taught me something or made me realize something life changing?" Choose an event that feels full of meaning and significance to you personally. These events usually make the best story ideas for a personal narrative. For example, if your personal narrative focuses on your intended career path as a teacher, you could write a narrative about how a youth coaching experience showed you the importance of making a positive impact on children. Alternatively, if you're writing about how you came to choose a college major in medical science, your narrative could focus on a wonderful volunteer experience you had as a child that made you want to help other people. A good personal essay will have an underlying moral or lesson, where the speaker undergoes a realization or change. Think of an experience where you learned a valuable lesson that you carried with you moving forward. Or an experience where you made a moral decision that shifted you in some way. For instance, you may pick an experience where you lost an important match, only to learn the value of failing and do better. Or you may choose an experience where you made a moral decision to help someone, which then lead to positive outcomes for you and the person. You can also go for a story idea that centers on a theme. You can then use your personal story to explore the theme in detail and from your perspective. Try to choose a theme that feels particular to you and your point of view. For example, you may choose a theme like love and use it to explore your experience of love growing up in a family with two fathers. Or you may choose a theme like freedom and use to to explore your struggles with freedom as a refugee.
A:
Think of a meaningful event in your life. Pick a personal story with a moral or lesson. Focus on an idea that fits a theme.
