• Acknowledge that an English paper, especially Fiction, has never intimidated you or created anxiety in you this way.
  • Get out of denial.
  • Remember that you are peer mentoring for this professor next year and cringe upon realization that stakes feel high.
  • Read source.
  • Wander around house, eat berries, and make a list about the paper rather than actually writing, claiming that these activities let the source "marinate" in your brain.
  • Flip through vegan/vegetarian cookbook, look for potential dinner. Further "marinating."
  • Sit in bed and think.
  • Open Word Document.
  • Stare.
  • Stop writing list as to stare uninterrupted at Word Document.
