The Full Story

The written word connects storytellers across generations.

Some writers document our historical truths in hopes of preventing the recurrence of past mistakes—write with integrity.

Others aim to heal from their past while making positive changes in the present to create a better future—write with intention.

All writers share a piece of themselves—write with your heart.

OH, MY!

Writer's Block?

 

Yes, it happens. Plotters plan (think outline). Pantsers fly by the seat of their pants (think sit & write... whatever happens, happens), or the combo of the two (balance is good).

  • Daily writing, even if it's garbage.

  • Prompt writing, to get the juices flowing.

  • Exercise, shower, read, watch a movie, or find a routine that your brain accepts.

Endings

We're all waiting! No pressure...

 

An ending is really just a new beginning.

So... wrap it up!

You're not done!

Nope, you're not done.

But a breather may be the key to your success. It's been a lot. Set it & forget it. Come back with a fresh set of eyes & get to work!
