Stranded, or Withholding Judgment

Currently, I am temporarily residing in the lovely and fast-growing city of Murfreesboro, Tennessee, home of Middle Tennessee State University, which is the home of the writing program I co-direct, the Writer's Loft. (Our fall workshops and orientation are next week and there are still a few spots left. You can come on Friday for […]

The Voice

Over the last few months, I've been thinking a lot about what Geneen Roth calls The Voice. No, this is not voice in the way we usually talk about it in literature, as in that special, sometimes elusive thing we writers are all seeking. It is the critical, harping, nagging, unpleasant voice that tells us […]

Motivation

Call It Whatever You Want….

…but today's topic is faith. Call it belief if that sounds less religious or woo-woo to you. Or call it certainty. What I'm talking about here is the quality not of hope (as in, "I hope I get an agent") but of utter, bedrock, complete and total belief, (as in, "I know I'm getting an […]

Story

How Do You Become Heroic?

I have a friend who sets up mini-challenges for herself. She's a pro at navigating through LA traffic to get somewhere on time when it looks impossible. She not only zips from lane to lane and takes clever alternative routes, she projects thoughts to ease her journey. When she succeeds, as she usually does, it […]

Bring Love to It

Warning: woo-woo-ness ahead. But it is good woo-woo-ness, so keep reading. I was writing in my journal this morning (yes, yay, I'm back to doing this fairly regularly again) when I got to a part where I wanted to write about a friend I'd seen recently. I wanted to write not only about our interaction, […]

Doodling

I am a doodler. Always have been. I doodle when I sit in my critique group and listen to the discussion, I doodle when I am at lectures or readings, I doodle when I'm writing with pen and paper and stop to think. Usually, I don't think much about it. I just do it. Doodling […]
