Chicken Soup
A first-rate soup is more creative than a second-rate painting. Abraham Maslow Chicken soup from my partner means the world to me.

I used to put aContinue reading “Possibility”
Let It Drip
Step into a scene and let it drip from your fingertips. MJ Bush If there was a way to describe one of the most amazing feelings of the writers life, this would be it, (for me). I wrote a blog post titled “‘Come Upon’ the Right Word” that spoke on divine inspiration. This quote remindsContinue reading “Let It Drip”
Your Own Freedom
That’s what you’re looking for as a writer when you’re working. You’re looking for your own freedom. Philip Roth A great way to shift this perspective is that you’re not writing to be free but you’re writing because you are free to write.
