January 5: No Experience Necessary (Enthusiasm Required) by Melanie George

I love articles (and blog posts) that make a point, teach a lesson or make you think--all while using a real-world example. So often, the writer's life is a solitary one and knowing other writers face the same issues, insecurities and aggrivations (talking characters, stubborn plots, time-crunched lives) that I do makes me feel so much better.

Melanie George's article at Romantic Times (Great site for authors...) is a beautiful reminder that we all question ourselves, our writing and our stories...and the only thing that sets writers apart from that conflict is....the act of writing.

The Art of Creating a Writer's Mission Statement

Here's a short little article I just published in Cheryl Wright's Writer2Writer ezine in November on creating a writer's mission statement.

I'm in the process of getting links together on goal setting, motivation and all that good stuff you need before you venture into writing (or can use a refresher on) to post here daily and thought the mission statement idea was a fab place to start. No use in writing goals if you don't know why you're writing...right?

Enjoy....more later, when I finish the 1500 words for the day (currently on 0...lol)
