Being better writers through sharing and learning. The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel Quotes. I really enjoyed the movie, The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel. My husband thought it would be crap but he watched the whole thing and said he liked it too. Did he, really? Anyway, as a writer I liked these lines particularly. How many husband have you had anyway? But it's also true that the person who risks nothing. does nothing, has nothing. All we know about the future is that it will be different. Links to this post.

Being better writers through sharing and learning. Not the writing itself. The process of pen to paper or fingers to keyboard now that's the easy part.The putting words out there is relatively easy in itself. But the true process of writing consistently, effectively and efficiently. That's the hard part. The writing that gets your audience to read. Now, that's challenging. That's the hardest part.

Being better writers through sharing and learning. Speaker Tags in Your Writing. As always I’ve been reading about writing and especially focusing on grammar and punctuation . I thought this snippet might be interesting to share with you. It’s about speaker tags and using commas to separate the speaker from the speech, here it is,. But as a reminder,.

Being better writers through sharing and learning. WHEN a well written sentence just does so mething for you. I came across what, for me, was a one sentence clincher:.
