Inspiration in an unlikely place | Rachel Stones Writes
http://rachelstoneswrites.com/2014/04/22/inspiration-in-an-unlikely-place
Inspiration in an unlikely place. The other day my two youngest were stir crazy. It was too hot for the park, so I took them to their favorite (and my least favorite) place for ice cream. On my way out the door I slipped a picture book manuscript into my purse, in true Ame Dyckman. I thought I needed quiet time to write in my office. But I. Needed the a fast food playground. Sometimes a little chaos gets the creative juices flowing. This entry was posted in Ragamuffins. April 22, 2014. You may use these.

Erik Ammon: FOCUS!!!!
http://erikammon.blogspot.com/2015/07/focus.html
Thursday, July 9, 2015. Something that I struggle with in my writing. Something that I have come to embrace. What do I mean? My ability to focus on a story to really "finish" it.

How many of those do I consider finished? I've been working on these- I hired a phenomenal editor ( Carrie Charlie Brown. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
