Resources for Writers
Just wanted to wish everyone who celebrates it a Very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Wishing you and yours all the love and joy the season has to offer.
I will be back in the new year with some old favourites as well as new and unique content. 🙂
“The first and perhaps the most important requirement for a successful writing performance~and writing is a performance, like singing an aria or dancing a jig ~ is to understand the nature of the occasion.” ~Stephen Greenblatt
“A writer is someone who has taught his mind to misbehave.”~Oscar Wilde.
My writing life is rewarding and filled with amazing opportunities.
“Some day you will be old enough to start reading fairy tales again.” ~ C.S. Lewis
Write a modern-day fairy tale based on your life. Where will you turn to for inspiration? Is your fairy tale replete with evil warlocks, fair maidens, fairies, goblins, elves, trolls and heroic princes? Is it set in a far away land or your local mall? Are you locked away in a tower or in a place without wi-fi?
Get creative, write and most of all, have fun! 🙂
“Remember: Plot is no more than footprints left in the snow after your characters have run by on their way to incredible destinations.”
~ Ray Bradbury
“Find what gave you the emotion; what the action was that gave you the excitement.
Then write it down making it clear so the reader will see it too and have the same feeling that you had. “
~Ernest Hemingway
Each and every day I confidently use my creativity.
“Two roads diverged in a wood, and I ~I took the one less traveled by,
and that has made all the difference.” ~ Robert Frost
Write about a time when you chose the path less traveled. What was the outcome? What did you gain or lose? Would you choose the same path again?
Reflect and write.
“One of the things [fiction] does is lead you to recognize what you did not know before.”
~Ursula K. Le Guin, The Paris Review
