Writing Tips
I strongly suggest one continue to move forward with little regard to the notion of failure.
It is not failure to continue to write,live and learn. Writing is the process of discovering our true selves and others.
Writing is discovering and creating life!

The Beginning... As I am writing and learning more each day how to write, I often wonder if God Himself knew what he really wanted to do with His word in the beginning.

For man to be in the likeness of God he must create.

Daily Inspiration For Writers

AUTUMN
Painted leaves careening in the wind.
Darkened clouds scudding across the sky.
Decayed leaves scenting the brisk air.
Trees giving their fashion show till they are clothed with winter, ice and snow.
Earth is readening for its winter rest.
Recovery time from the elements of summer.

by Alice O'Connell
Writing is like life-write each moment with meaning and purpose. Write each paragraph knowing it will impact someone. Write each chapter believing your story is important. Regina Butler/ 2006
WINDS
Winds blow leaves scatter.
Winds blow branches clatter.
Gentle winds fluttering curtains.
Strong winds scattering debris.
Powerful winds shattering lives.
Summer packs and heads south with her warmth and freedom.
Autumn sets up housekeeping with her colorful, crazy quilt.
Her sister winter arrives with a downy blanket of snow and frozen tears.
Spring awaits her time to bloom and grow once more.

By Alice O'Connell

The Time Is Now... The time is now to move forward into the unknown to drink from the cup, which has been waiting to tip itself to you.

Take the risk and fall deeply into the unknown where the divine meets with the world.

The time is now to take up anchor and sail as the winds are blowing. Although the sea holds sharks, and waves that may tower over you, beyond the risk lies dolphins, waves and islands waiting to be explored.

The time is now to climb the oak tree you planted as a young woman;the limbs are strong enough to hold you and your dream. Begin now, the tree has matured.

The time is now to find the treasure; the treasure buried that should have been used. Open the chest and allow the gold within to shine. Share the treasure and watch it multiply.

The time is now to know all that was good is still, but the children have changed. Move forward knowing others will follow; their treasure was buried too. Shine your gold upon them and allow them to shine. Each piece of gold will illuminate into the hands of another. You may not know who possesses’ the gold, but you will know it has been spent.

The time is now to embrace the silence and ask the questions. The questions will lead you on your quest. The journey will be filled with uncertainty and adversity, the changes will occur rapidly and slowly, but the change will come. Embrace it now.

The time is now to journey onto the pages, into time, away from time, and beyond time. The Time is Now… RB October 2006.
This prose is dedicated to Kristin Mascioli- Breast Cancer Survivor.
PROMPTS:

The Writer's Prayer
Open my mind, Lord. Grant me the talent to write with clarity and style, so my words go down rich and smooth, like fine wine, and leave my reader thirsty for more. Open my heart, Lord. Grant me the sensitivity to understand my characters--their hopes, their wants, their dreams--and help me to confer that empathy to my reader. Open my soul, Lord, so I may be a channel to wisdom and creativity from beyond my Self. Stoke my imagination with vivid imagery and vibrant perception. But most of all, Lord, help me to know the Truth, so my fiction is more honest than actuality and reaches the depths of my reader's soul. Wrap these gifts with opportunity, perseverance, and the strength to resist those who insist it can't be done. Amen. -- Sandy Tritt (c) copyright 1999, Sandy Tritt. All rights reserved. <>
To avoid criticism, do nothing, say nothing, be nothing. Elbert Hubbard

On Critiquing:
The beginner writer may be hesitant about his/her story, poem or prose being critiqued. This is a common thought.
The truth is every writer needs feedback if he/she is going to make improvements in their writing.
Writing is communication. There must be a reader to share the writing with.
If you are trying your hand at writing for the first time, be selective about who you ask to critique your writing.

Once you have begun to ease into allowing another to read your writing, branch out and allow more people to read it (if they want to).

To Avoid criticism, write nothing.
