Most writers feel stuck at some point in the writing process. These reflections are based on what occupational therapists and others have learned from their own experiences about writing papers and publishing their work in peer-reviewed journals.In 2004, I invited students and colleagues to send me their top three writing strategies to prepare for an interactive workshop on writing for publication. These writing strategies were later posted on a website and sent to everyone whom I had initially contacted.The writing strategies began with choosing the topic and moving the writing along through the submission process. They concluded with responding to feedback from reviewers and building one's writing skills.These reflections may provide other writers with ways to pursue their writing projects.
