Monday Motivation-Two Powerful Forces
Our last Monday Motivation of the year. I hope you’ve found this year’s quotes inspiring. Lots more to come next year and maybe a motivation challenge or two! I picked this one because it includes two words, dreams and dedication. Possess those two things and you’re on your way to being a success not just…
Monday Motivation-See It, Live It
Call it strange, call it whatever you want, but sometimes seeing yourself doing something you want to achieve, is all it takes. When I struggled to get published, I’d go to the bookstore and wander around. I’d see my name on the books. I’d see myself at the front of the store, signing my latest…
Living Your Dream…a pep talk
I wasn’t sure what I was going to write about on today’s blog, but the beauty of being an author is something always comes to mind. Oftentimes, something happens or someone says something that gives you a nudge. Life sometimes gives you a gentle reminder about living your dream too. I don’t know if it’s…
Friday Ramblings From An Author-One Busy Week
The first full work week of 2020 is almost history. I don’t know what it is about the turn of the calendar…or maybe it’s being inside during cold weather, but I always seem to get lots done on my to do list. The Plotting Boot Camp begin on Monday and I have to say it’s…

Friday Ramblings From An Author-Time Isn’t Refundable
It’s almost summer (officially), the year is almost half way done so it’s time to look at the goals I’ve set for the year. One thing I struggle with is getting back to the mysteries I started and never finished. I get busy with other writing, teaching, tutoring…okay, it’s no excuse. This week something…
Monday Motivation-Explore, Dream, Discover
I stumbled upon this quote the other day and thought it was the perfect one for the last of this year’s Monday Motivations. In 2019, do as Mark Twain suggests, do something you won’t regret later…write a book! Twenty years from now, you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the…
Wednesday Writing Prompts-Dream a Little Dream
This week’s prompt is all about dreaming. Your character has a dream where he or she is on a train track. Does their dream reveal how they got there? What happens when they begin to walk along the tracks? Do they run into someone from their past? What happens when they wake up? Have…
