"The life of a writer. Much like being a velveteen rabbit. You become." - Wrtr #AmWriting #AmEditing Become an Author. #Writing. A favorite. Happy Holidays for those who celebrate! You all are part of my family. #Author #Writer #BookSky #AuthorSky
Writing: He said, 'You become. It takes a long time. That's why it doesn't happen often to people who break easily, or have sharp edges, or who have to be carefully kept. Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in the joints and very shabby. But these things don't matter at all, because once you are Real you can't be ugly, except to people who don't understand.' -The Velveteen Rabbit ~ Margery Williams , The Velveteen Rabbit

Write early in the morning or late at night when you are a little tired, it may help you remove your inner rejection voices when you happen to have them. #AmWriting Sneak up on your brain and write. #Writing. - Wrtr #Writer #Author #BookSky #AuthorSky

Have you ever worked on two books at the same time? It sort of helps me with consistent writing. When I'm stuck on one, I can write on another until I become unstuck. And vice versa. - Wrtr #AmWriting #AmEditing Keep #Writing #Writer #Author #BookSky

Be inspired by others, but when you sit down to write, knock down any walls of doubt, and write like only you can. - Lucy Knott

Be who you are, write who you are. You can't control any of the rest of the things except showing up each day to write, trying new things, and learning from your writing and stories. - Wrtr #AmWriting ..Keep #Writing ~ Be You. #Author #Writer #BookSky #AuthorSky
Writing is always that weird contrast between writing and learning. Learning about your plot, about your characters, and your novel. - Wrtr

“If you need encouragement while writing just take a look at your bookshelf. Every author whose book is up there has gone through the same moments just like you are now. They were able to persevere and write, and so can you.” - Wrtr #AmWriting ...Be #Writing #Author #Writer #BookSky #AuthorSky

Remember, all of our favorite authors started out writing just like us. A first draft is for getting the shape of a story along with its imperfections. So you can find and bring out the best story, the real story, in later drafts. - Wrtr #AmWriting #Writing #Writer #Author #BookSky #AuthorSky
You can't decorate a house until it's built. You can't revise a novel until it's written. Until you know what your story looks like, there's no way for you to fix it with any sort of clarity. - Jessica Brody ~ Background photo shows a closeup of a person's hiking boots in a tall area of straw colored grass.

About Books: "I want them to be available, I want them to be read, I want them to be argued about, I want people to cry over them, I want people to get angry with them, I want people to love them." - Ursula K. Le Guin #AmWriting #Writing. ~Words for all of us writers. - Wrtr #Author #Writer #BookSky
If it's a good novel, we may find, that we're a bit different from what we were before we read it, that we have been changed a little, as if by having met a new face, crossed a street we've never crossed before. - Ursula K. Le Guin

If you are lagging in your writing. Don't be afraid or feel guilty to schedule time out to just think about your story, ponder it, strategize about it, instead of writing. Story clarity always fixes writing stops. - Wrtr #AmWriting #Writing #Writer #Author ~ #BookSky #AuthorSky
It is good to have an end to journey toward; but it is the journey that matters, in the end. - Ursula K. Le Guin ~ Background photo shows a fire next to the water, lighting up the night sky, above a beach .

Sometimes writing takes time to write and reflect. Time to think through the story. Other times it tumbles out too fast to type. Writing is more than the act of typing, it's also the time spent thinking through the story. - Wrtr #AmWriting #Writing #Writer #Author ~ #BookSky #AuthorSky
Some books you read, some books you enjoy. But some books just swallow you up, heart and soul. - Joanne Harris

Ever feel like writer's block has your writing all boxed up? Write a fun short story about some of your side characters. A story you've always wanted to tell. It will get you writing again and shed light on what you are currently writing.- Wrtr #AmWriting #Writing #Writer #Author #BookSky #AuthorSky

Recharge your #writing batteries. Take some time to rest and recharge between your writing. Sometimes an author's mind needs time to percolate on a story to find the right angle to write. Instead, read something great. - Wrtr #AmWriting Rest, recharge, come back strong. #Writer #Author #BookSky
Writing stories is a kind of magic, too. - Cornelia Funke ~ Background photo show a dark blue night sky, through the trees and stars.
