Hello, new month.
Hello, new words.
And HELLOOOOOOOOOOO, NEW JOURNAL!

Thrilled & humbled to write this morning in my 8th journal since the journey began (3 years + 3 months, & more to come).

Happy wording & creating, everyone.

Writing fiction now feels like you’re on the bow of a sinking ship. What’s the point?

Write anyway. Write as if the story is a caged bird dying to escape. Manifest those stories into the world like some word-wizard crafting a powerful protective spell. #5amwritersclub

Being a writer looked like this today.

Cat in lap, thinking about my new novel. Writing isn’t always words on a page.

It can be:

Reading.
Thinking.
Listening.
Painting.
Cooking.
Watching.
Inviting a new story in.

Be creative, on your terms.

This morning, I went from zero ideas for my newsletter, to 700 words towards a first draft.

I'll take it with a side of getting jiggy with it.

Happy wording & creating, everyone!

Hello.

Lots of dream talk this week, yet I can't sleep through the night.

I #amwriting as an alternative to counting sheep.
Crossing 🤞🏾 I can squeeze in a few more hours of rest before the house stirs.

Wishing you all sweet words & 💤.

Reason #832 why writing is cool?

No need for fancy tools, high tech equipment, or a huge office. Just thoughts, words, and a way to get them down.

My writing space is a renovated closet with pretty wallpaper and a writing dragon.

You do you.

FAB FEB(ruary) is nearly over.
I'm rediscovering the beauty in all seasons.
I'm not letting the weight of the frost or snow hold me down.

Day 1,123 & the journey continues.

Happy wording & creating, everyone.

Hello! 👋🏾 Long time no check-in.

Despite journaling daily, I became absorbed by the massive amounts of snow & forgot how to shovel.

I'm still enjoying this FABULOUS FEBRUARY & the milestones I got to celebrate.

Happy wording & creating, everyone!

Many authors give up too quickly. Everything that is worth achieving takes times, often longer than we want or expect.

Here’s to slow fulfilling dreams!

Of course, I'm excited to be wide awake at 2am for the 3rd time this week. At least I #amwriting. I mean, who needs a good night's rest?

(Insert pool of my tears)

Happy wording & creating (& sleeping), everyone.

I woke before the alarm for a few days in a row. Had great #journaling sessions on those days.

Is my “no-SNOOZE” strategy finally paying off? At least for writing?

I believe I found this week’s newsletter theme…
