Thanks! I'll have to check this one out.
Ann B. Keller
I write down snippets on napkins, scrap paper, whatever I have on hand. For those pesky muses who talk a little and then hush up, I have a big fat virtual work in process folder. I imagine one day I will get in there and finish all those ideas, bu...
Thank you very much for Sharing this & I shall pass it on to Many Poet friends of mine!
Kind regards,

I wanted to share a link with you that I have found so useful. In my 24 years of writing poetry, I have never seen this or even been taught this.
Sheri
Thank you so much! What you said made so much sense and it really did open my eyes to see how I could write so the people I was worried of hurting could be used and yet made to look totally different. I NEVER thought of using that approach. You ar...
Well said, Sheri! Thanks for the reminder!
Hugs, Judith
One of the advantages of working with fiction is that you have no obligation to speak nothing but the truth. In fact, when you decide to write "fact-based-fiction", you're using the real-life instances as a framework and catalyst rather than an ou...

That is exactly what the blog is about Karen...not wasting time, but enjoying it because it is fleeting.
What a most ineteresting picture! I laughed at it, thought it kind of gross and very, very strange. Would be good used in a parody of a sci-fi movie! lol

I'm sure every writer has ideas come up at the most inappropriate times or the most awqward moments. For me, it's as soon as my head hits my pillow to sleep. So, over the years, I've kept a microcassette recorder by my pillow and when the ideas co...

- Thanks for commenting on my page. I've always envied anyone who can write poetry. I'd love to but any time I try it stinks.

- Thanks. I'll look around. I have a title for my book, but it is more of a biography. Everybody always said I should write my life story because of all that I've been through and yet maintain a positive attitude. I can't tell you all the places that is written, but it is there and others who hear my testimony say the same thing. I guess it's just a matter of sitting down, writing, and putting it together afterwards.

"Life is the art of drawing without an eraser."
~ John W. Gardner ~
Life is full of many things: trials, successes, victories, failures, errors, sadness, weakness, happiness, strength and so on. To be truthful, the list could go on as far as each person's imagination. But what do all these things add up to? What do they mean?
Life is a line in time that is never taken away. it is like an artist who draws a portrait without picking his pencil up from the paper until the portrait is drawn. One… Continue

Never Put Off Until Tomorrow
Know the true value of time; snatch, seize and enjoy every moment of it. No idleness...never put off till tomorrow what you can do today.
- Lord Chesterfield
I often wondered where this quote came from. I don't know who Lord Chesterfield was, but I will find out later, but he was very wise. Time is a privilege. We never know how much...or how little...of it we have left. Only our Creator knows the day and the hour of our death.
I heard it once said to not kill or waste time because once that t… Continue

Angela Cummings thought she had Mr. Right. Greg Thompson was smart, handsome, and well respected. Only her son Josh didn't like him, and he was Mr. Romantic.
Then Cooper Johnson rode into town on a broken down Harley, looking sexier than a man had a right to. Be still her wandering Heart
A beautiful protected witness is forced to trust her life to the man who betrayed her to the mob. Can she also trust him with her heart?
The latest release by the award-winning author of Thin Ice and Jake's Return. Meghan’s sister is dead. Nick, the only person in town who can tell her the truth, has secrets of his own, and he's not talking. Will Meghan find out what happened to her sister, or will Ashton's Secret remain forever buried?
Someone is stalking Pandora Reilly, someone dark and sinister, someone who knows things only her ex husband would know. Her dead ex husband. Justin Andrews is hired to protect her and her children from the danger surrounding them. Can he save Pandora and her children without sacrificing his heart? Or will his past come back to haunt
One phone call changed both their lives.
A real life knight in shining armor, except he isn’t in armor he’s in a suit. The first time Lena Douglas lays eyes on Stephan Grayson that’s what he seems to her. He saves her from a violence that still haunts her nights.
Dreams often reflect deepest desires…even if they’re nightmares. When cruelly captured, a powerful soul helps a vampire create his languid fantasy. Eternal devotion to two important people forces this creature to dream, to see himself with honest eyes. Imagination runs wild, yet Michael Malone still desires death. Why should he survive? Two reasons… One is revenge. The other is love.
She thought herself cowardly and weak. He saw conviction and strength, and a soul-deep love she was willing to die for. But can he save her without endangering his people. And can a love he never dreamt possible give him the strength to fight a foe determined to destroy them both.
