I generally have several manuscripts in progress at any one time.

If I slow down with ideas for one I let it rest and move on to another, whichever one catches my interest.

I currently have nine manuscripts on the go... yes nine! Some are non-fiction and some fiction. They range from being in the concept stage to nearing completion.

I think in this way, I never really get writer's block. The best ideas take priority.

For me, writing is a highly addictive and fascinating process. It is part of my everyday life! (less)

The best thing about being a writer is receiving feedback: ratings, reviews, an email or two.

I particularly enjoy seeing quotes from my books circulating the globe and being used in positive and useful ways.

The truth is... very few writers are in this for the money. It is unrealistic to write one, or even ten books, and expect to hit a home-run - $$. We want to share our thoughts and ideas.

SO, if you have a favourite writer... Let them know! Make their day! Make their year!

I remember working on my second book and feeling quite frazzled one day to the point that I questioned whether to keep going or not... and let me say I don't give up easily.

That night I received an incredible email from a lady who had read my first book and loved it... She signed off by saying, "Don't ever stop writing!"

Talk about timely!.... Thanks again Re!

A great book. I reread it everytime I do the final read through on my manuscripts. It's a great refresher that enables me to realign and focus on whether I am clearly and effectively making my point.

A great reference for non-fiction writers.

“The power behind taking responsibility for your actions lies in putting an end to negative thought patterns. You no longer dwell on what went wrong or focus on whom you are going to blame. You don't waste time building roadblocks to your success. Instead, you are set free and can now focus on succeeding.”
Lorii Myers

“Don’t build roadblocks out of assumptions.”

“The thing about life, about change, is there are always lessons. Some are subtle, others not, and sometimes it takes being ripped out of your comfort zone to finally get it—then it’s transformative.”
Lorii Myers

“I never saw it coming; I never thought you’d leave, but baby what you gave me was the courage to find me.”
Lorii Myers

“There’s a time when it all comes together—what you long for and what you fear—and as tentative as you may feel, you’re driven to continue. At that point, the need to forge ahead is the only option, and your direction is defined despite yourself.”
