It’s well into February. I’ve been just terrible at writing
in my blog. No real excuse, other than I’m trying hard to put my writing first.
To do that, I must put less into social media which I’m really not into anyway,
but I do this blog and put a quote on facebook on occasion. Quotes are my
passion and my go to, to get going. There are so many great ones out there that
speak to me and I just must share. I was taught to. Besides, I’ve found nothing
helps me as much as inspiring someone else or giving someone else a hand up. And
passing on something that helps me…helps.
Anyway, I’ve never done much online, but I’ve been up to
even less because my rewrites have completely filled my head, mind and thereby,
fingers. Every once in a while though, I do get this little snarky feeling of
guilt, but why? Not many are following this blog, but still, if there is just
one reader that gets a boost from my words, that’s enough. I mean, we got to
help each other, right?
Writing is a lonely, tough business and on and on and we all
know that. Right? So really what I need, want every day when I sit at my desk
and put fingers to the keyboard is a few, just a few, not to many, ‘cause I’m
busy, I got dreams and words crowding my mind…I want a few words of wisdom
about how to keep going. Quotes are the thing, then, aren’t they?
So, on my desk today:
We thrive on hope
BEWARE! Beyond, there be dragons. Slay the Dragon
Day by day, page by page, we build a book.
Out at the edge of your will and stamina, there is always a
place where you come upon despair. That is just the place you feel the rush of
your second wind. –From The Tracker, by Tom Brown, jr.
A sailor shipwrecked on this coast, bids you set sail. Full
many a ship, when his was lost, weathered the gale. –found on a deserted Greek
island, centuries ago.
Happy writing!
