I also think it's that time when we first wake up and nothing is there but the pureness of creativity.<br /><br />I especially agree with you about loving what you write as long as it stimulates our minds. <br /><br />And as I've said before, congratulations on your books!Vicki Batman, sassy writerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13846704675542248648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6474637957133239073.post-82875622570822108572009-08-15T16:34:37.874-04:002009-08-15T16:34:37.874-04:00Vicki:

I think that's one of the most wonderful things about writing and this business - there are so many ways to use our talent and stimulate our creativity - short story, novel length, educational pieces, blog posts - on and on. All of it uses our writing muscle and all of it can be very refreshing when we mix up our projects.<br /><br />Super-congrats on Charlie's Friend!!!!<br /><br />AddisonAddison Foxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00168075638110546283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6474637957133239073.post-27192967258520533072009-08-15T14:28:15.452-04:002009-08-15T14:28:15.452-04:00Sally!

Oops. that's the secret. <br /><br />Pam found her copy at Barnes & Noble, but my B&N didn't have any. I went to Hastings and got several and my sister raided the Hastings by her. Fry's Electronics was supposed to get some. Books a Million. If you have a loved one in a senior home or a favorite hair salon, they subscribe!

Keep mining yours! (And if the closet isn't getting the job done, crack open a few drawers. They're secrets, too.) <br /><br />Congratulations on the story. Still haven't been able to locate the magazine. Where are the rest of you buying it?<br /><br />SallySally Fnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6474637957133239073.post-55048316843726348332009-08-15T12:32:00.172-04:002009-08-15T12:32:00.172-04:00Hi, Pam!

Give a bit, though and something will hit. Meanwhile, I scribbled down "Valentine Hell" yesterday and "Feelings".

I read passages long ago and saw true talent shine.

I'm in and out, bouncing around. I write short and fast and spare. Could be why I haven't finished a book in a while. The 3 I have finished I labored on for a long time. <br /><br />You write beautiful descriptive pages and that is a wonderful talent.
