It’s what we see in our mind’s eye that’s important. The hard part is translating it to the reader, what we see in the story into the right words for each great story. -Wrtr #amwriting #amediting …Be Writing.

Writing a novel can set you free, but having all that freedom can make you feel a bit unknown at times. So make sure to continue to focus on the story you want to tell. -Wrtr #amwriting #amediting Writing. ~Refining the story can fix your writing.

Sometimes when I start writing a novel my characters aren’t always as well defined until the end. But as the novel grows, they grow on me by the end. -Wrtr #amwriting #amediting ..Writing.

“Be what you want. Don’t ask for it. Don’t hope for it. Don’t wait for it. Be it now. Being a “writer” is not something that happens when you sell your first book or land on a bestseller list. It’s a state of mind. It’s who you are.” -Jessica Brody #amwriting

“For to know a man’s library is, in some measure, to know his mind.”

“If you don’t see the book you want on the shelf, write it.” -Beverly Cleary #amwriting Be Writing.

The joy of poetry is that it will wait for you. Novels don’t wait for you. Characters change. But poetry will wait. I think it’s the greatest art.

Write the story that is in your heart. The only sure way to be an author is to sit down and start writing.
