Give it to Your Pen
Hello readers and writers,
Are you reading something you enjoy? Is there a character in the story you would like to emulate? Maybe you simply find a character delightful to read about and would like to write your own story about that character. Whatever answers you gave can all be food for thought for something you would like to write. May Sarton describes inspiration as white heat in her book, A Journey of a Solitude. Are you waiting for that white heat before you pursue your desire to write because I am here to tell you that most writers, myself included, don't have the luxury to wait for that white heat. I write everyday starting with the date as if to say, "here page, here I am!"
Pick up your pen, and write about the inspiration you wish you had right now.
Keep the pen moving,
Jan
