Hello to You
Welcome to my brand new Newsletter. Thank you for signing up.
Here on My Writing Process I hope to share with you the inspirations,
aspirations, ideas, methods and processes that have kept me loving my
writing process and enjoying some success with people out there who
love it too for the last twenty years. I want this to work for
you too.
Every day some new writing. So easy to sit down at the keyboards or
with notebook in hand. Still, I find writing anything but
routine. I am truly astonished at articles and blog posts that
say what a dreadful toil the writing process.
Every day, with writing at the core of my life, I discover things about
myself I never knew before. I would argue with the rather widespread
notion of writing as therapy, but I have no doubt that writing every
day has a therapeutic effect.
Every day produces something new: a new idea, a new approach to writing,
to reading, to researching and reviewing. One day we are inspired by
someone who turns present day despair about publishing into the
personal adventure of independent publishing. Another day we meet
a new contact who urges us to try a new thing- this Newsletter
for instance.
Another day we read an article that takes away the mystique of
something that has seemed difficult. For me last week it was learning
how to free-hand design the cover for my new novel Writing at
the Maison Bleue..
It is happening all the time. This week I was excited when a
writer friend discovered an image on the Internet that will change the
whole direction of her novel.
No wonder after all this time I still continue to love my writing
processes and I hope that this newsletter will inspire you to love
yours. It is entirely about the process – not some distant dream of
publication, fame or fortune. Just love your writing and your life will
be truly enhanced.

Designing the cover of my new novel was
a very new experience. Refreshing. |
