New Years Blog-olution 2016

 Each of us touch people with what we do every day, sharing our diverse voices and stories with the world. You can make a difference with your writing. One little shared piece of your soul can radiate out into the world and if it helps just one other person, it has made a positive difference in the world.

Why should writers help other writers? It's wonderful to be successful but in my definition of success, part of the plan is creating positive change in the lives of not only my readers, but my fellow authors. If you have a talent, it is your personal responsibility not only to exercise that talent for the greater good, but to use it to help others on a similar path. That is what makes the world a better place.

"Each time a man stands up for an idea, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth ripples of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centres of energy and daring, those ripples build a current that can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance." - Robert F Kennedy

Positive change is made by individuals who think they can make a difference. Each persons thoughts and actions affect the lives of others in some way. One person can make a difference if they make a conscious choice to do so.

This year, I offer you encouragement, support and my shared knowledge in the field of children's books in the hope that you can create positive change in your writing career and achieve your own success. Please follow my blog and share this journey with me. If we form a community of like minded children's authors and illustrators, we can make a positive change in the content and quality of books that form the minds of the next generation, giving them a voice to match their own and holding a mirror to the diverse world in which they live.

Looking forward to sharing with you this year, and finding out what I can do to personally help you achieve your writing goals.


Happy New Year,
Michelle
