As an aspiring novelist and Administrative Assistant 

for To Write Well

my days are filled with the joys, frustration

and passion of the art and craft of writing.

Join me in exploring the writer's life,

and the world of creativity.

 

 


Do you shudder when you think of having to revise your manuscript?

All writers do at one time or another. However, published writers know that revision is the heart and soul of their creativity, not the enemy of it.

Revision is the writer’s greatest opportunity to strengthen and enrich a manuscript so it evokes strong emotions from your readers.

Strong revision creates a memorable manuscript—one that literary agents and publishers want.

Looking For Hope

This morning while I was in that in between place when you are just waking up, I was reciting the lines that are on the base of the Statue of Liberty:

Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,

Well, lately, I have had so much to [...]
