Writing Prompt Pictures
Writing prompt pictures for those working on the visual exercise in How To Write Without Block by Eden S Gruger. For all those who access their inspiration visually, here are some picture writing prompts, work through them one by one - sometimes it is a better idea to choose a picture that unsettles you, or that you do not like.
Women and Neurodiversity
You could ask a thousand autistic women what it’s like, and whilst there will be similarities in the answers, all of the experiences will be different, that’s diversity for you. Eden Gruger autistic author speaks to Nicky Collins autism coach, author and podcaster.
Paralympian Vanessa Wallace
An entrepreneur turned athlete who became a medal winning competitor and Paralympian. Nothing beats sitting in someone’s kitchen having a cuppa and holding their Gold Medals I am telling you.

Living The Next Chapter
You know I love a podcast, and when the host is as good as Dave Chapman at getting you to open up, it’s even better. With over four hundred episodes under his belt it’s not just me that loved speaking to Dave.

Healing Conversations
What do you do when life gives you lemons? For Eden Gruger, it was the chance to get back into what she always knew she wanted to do - write! Eden is the author of 6 books, despite everyone who ever knew her saying she wasn't the writer kind...! In this conversation, we talk about Eden's writing path, as well as her belief that when you look at what you CAN do, rather than everything you CAN'T - you find a way to move forward in ways you never thought were possible!
When Your Superpower Is Being Invisible
It was my absolute pleasure to write this article for Everyday Magazine, ‘When your superpower is being invisible: Lived Experience of Disability.
“This is in no way a bash the NHS, or the hardworking social worker’s piece, this is my lived experience of invisible disability, the services who are working to support me. And the ways that they don’t quite work in the way that the Social Care Institute of Excellence had in mind. An invisible disability is a life-altering condition that is not apparent just by looking at someone. Guess what? This covers 1 in 7 of the UK’s population – so we are everywhere, you just don’t know it, because our superpower is being invisible”.

Inspired By Ruth Rood
In 2018 I went to my first ever business networking meeting as an author. Little did I know that in that room was someone who would become not only a supporter of my journey, but a true inspiration to me.
Inspired By Nari Sandhu
I had the absolute privilege to meet with Nari Sandhu to talk about why she for me an inspirational woman. Although she admitted that when I asked her she thought “why does Eden want to talk to me?” I think by the end of the page you will understand, and feel the same as I do.
Inspired By Gina Mann
“I am so passionate about sharing my story because I truly believe that we are NEVER too old, and it is NEVER too late to step into the best version of yourself and be authentically you. That was what I was after…”
Inspired By Jackie Grant
Part of the reason I enjoyed working with Jackie so much was her understanding of stress and anxiety, and how this can hold back your fitness and wellness goals. This kind of genuine understanding often comes from someone’s struggles, and Jackie explained that stress and anxiety had been a major factor in leaving her previous role
Inspired By Sarah Lovatt-Ellis
I was instantly drawn to her energy, passion and honesty. Looking like a million dollars and then some, she owned the room without being over the top, not an easy thing to pull off.
Inspired By Lesley Krier
“Words always came very easily to me and I was always writing something, but not numbers – at all. I now realise I’m dyscalculic, but that was not recognised back then, instead I was told I was stupid or lazy, despite being neither…”
