Never, ever give up on yourself!

You don’t write for the editor. You write for you and for your reader.

If nothing else, write for the reader in you!

My Writing Mantra

“The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away.” —David Viscott

A Mantra All Writers Should Have!

When something goes wrong in your life, just yell "plot twist!" and move on. (Unknown author)

Never Give Up On Your Dreams

“Dreams never truly die; they just change their appearances.” -a contemplative writer

A Writer Is…

a spinner of words no matter the form.

INSPIRATIONAL QUOTES

“Don’t let fear make your decisions for you.” -Avi Kaplan, Folk musician

 

“When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves.” -Viktor Frankl, survivor of 4 concentration camps
