Write What You Know ~ Ep. 364
There are so many stories that are ours to tell. When will you sit down to write it? Today I reflect on writing the stories we know but more importantly its about knowing who I am writing for. I am writing first for myself, for all the versions of me who didn't always have the… Continue reading Write What You Know ~ Ep. 364
Being Acknowledged As An Artist ~ Ep. 366
If we are honest with ourselves--who doesn't want to be acknowledged as an artist? Rejection hurts, but seeking validation should not drive the work.

There is something really special that happens when we write in writing community, when we are able to bounce off our ideas off others who give us things to think… Continue reading Writers Block & The Muse pt. 2 ~ Ep. 370
Getting Support ~ Ep. 371
Tonight I had my workshop in Costa Rica where I got to talk about my novel in progress. I am meditating on the significance of getting support during the writing process.

Blank Pages ~ Ep. 373
