Writers On The Move: Office Organization Tips: How to Get and Stay Orga...

Okay, so on Thursdays I was going to start sharing updates with all of you. I do have something to share and will get it up in a bit, but I had to share this first. I just love Donna McDine. Not only because we have known each other in the virtual writing world and have worked together at Stories for Children Magazine over the year, but also because she knows how to put perspective on things you normally don't as a writer. So I'm sharing her post from Writers On The Move (where we both contribute each month) as I felt this is something we all need...writing or not.

The world will not have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is, not how it compares with other expression. It is your business to keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the channel open." Graham's words ring true. There is only one of you in the world: The way you think, the way you see things, the way you respond, the way you nurture yourself and other people, the way you go about doing mundane things. The way you love, the way you express, the way you tell a story, the way you write. The world will know of and witness only one you . The totality of you -- talents, nuances, thought proc...

Guest Post Wed: Creating Unique Characters

Too many characters in novels are too much alike. As a result, the stories and the characters' actions (and reactions) become predictable. You'd already know what would happen only a few chapters in the story!
