Sanctuary
Last night, I put on some new music and one picture stayed in motion on the screen. A woman lying in the breeze on the boat rocked softly on the water while pink flower petals fell from the sky over her. I heard the sound of lapping, gentle waves, and the leaves moving through theContinue reading “Sanctuary”
Self Writing
Another late night writing session is in order as I type into midnight. Maybe I should open my own diner for writers who can’t sleep or wake up in the middle of night because they’re woken up by their inner writing muse. My pen continues to call and each time it does, I’m thankful. TheContinue reading “Self Writing”
Just Write
After days of cold and rain, I finally felt the warmth of the sun on my face with another successful art event this past weekend. The weather started out crisp, then teetered over into the celebration of shorts and no coat. I celebrated the fact that I started to break a small sweat in theContinue reading “Just Write”
Birthday Wishes
This week the app that I use to create all my blog posts decided to act up and not sync consistently. I’ve had to start over with some of my writing and posts. Good thing I have one of my birthday presents early this week! Happy Birthday to myself today! Hopefully, this weekend’s event willContinue reading “Birthday Wishes”
Still Writing In the Moonlight
The clock struck midnight and I didn’t turn into a pumpkin or a mouse. Instead my toes lowered out of my blanket to touch the cool air. I felt my body relax as I thought of cold sheets after the ride home in the sun. My new piece of happy this week was in theContinue reading “Still Writing In the Moonlight”
Time for a Change
This week I’m doing a bit of moonlighting by writing my posts in the evening because of all the things occurring during the day. Those who follow me, know that sometimes I also experiment with the time of day that I write. Playing around with time, place, and location may help your writing get unstuck.Continue reading “Time for a Change”
Sweet Monday
The month of May is here and starting off busy in my studio. I have 2 more large art events coming up in the next few weeks and my home is stacked with boxes of supplies and pieces wrapped in layers of bubble wrap. I knew the crazy pace I wanted to set this yearContinue reading “Sweet Monday”
Vacation Days
This week I decided to rest some more after working hard after a successful weekend at Geek Craft Expo. There were thousands of visitors that came to see all of the many talented creators and my husband and I were busy handling the rush. He and I had the good, tired feel at the endContinue reading “Vacation Days”
Showtime!
The late nights this week have me droppy-eyed. The sacrifice of sleep for my art and my writing may mean that a few days off are in order. Yesterday I was too busy creating more miniatures until 2:00 in the morning and I missed my usual post time. So, if you take a look atContinue reading “Showtime!”
Homework
“Writing is a process of questions.” Glen Gers The middle of the week is here and I’m wondering how everyone is doing with their writing? As we get busy with our lives, sitting down in our seat for a few minutes can feel like a chore. When that happens, I always go back to theContinue reading “Homework”
Story Telling Methods
This week I’m still working on my rooftop exercise from last week. I extended my short scene to let the story unfold for another day. The piece that I created last week can stand alone but what do I need if I continue? The advantage of writing a longer story is the ability to revealContinue reading “Story Telling Methods”
