We are studying the book "How to Write a Lot" by Paul J. Silvia. In between discussion sessions, we're having writing sessions where, like your group, we meet over Zoom and write together. Though the focus is academic writing, the tips and strategies apply to any kind of writing.Shannon M. aka "Auntie"https://www.blogger.com/profile/18176249631680504508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6934122631054104275.post-26544060179593735182022-01-07T14:37:53.963-05:002022-01-07T14:37:53.963-05:00I like Sunday drives...I like Sunday drives...ellen b.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14531430948905935301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6934122631054104275.post-29699791661129216412022-01-07T14:12:01.414-05:002022-01-07T14:12:01.414-05:00My blogging is down to once a week from daily, but...My blogging is down to once a week from daily, but I look at that as a good thing - less forced. I enjoy honest writing and you have that in spades.

Each of us, finding our own way, to live, post Horror. -smile-<br /><br /><b>❄ ❄ ❄<br />“Anne came dancing home<br />in the purple winter twilight<br />across the snowy places.”<br />❄ ❄ ❄</b>Beside a babbling brook...https://www.blogger.com/profile/14230422491225783790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6934122631054104275.post-72057708039951366622022-01-06T12:17:40.859-05:002022-01-06T12:17:40.859-05:00Your group sounds so interesting and challenging a...Your group sounds so interesting and challenging and fun!

Hello there, I think I found you through another blog, I just can't remember whose. ;) I follow my favorite author on Instagram and have read all her books and one thing she said in her memoir of sorts, is that when she made the decision to write, she knew she had to sacrifice something else. So she started waking up early three days a week while her kids were young and she would write for four hours on each of those days and that was when her first series of books was written. I find that so interesting! I have been blogging here in this online community for almost fifteen years and I'm starting to write more, the older I get, for magazines and websites. I'm trying to be more disciplined in how I spend my time alone during the week days. I've not quite accomplished this yet, but I said all of that to say that I feel your words here. I hope you're inspired in your time each day and that the words start flowing once again.

The last couple of years have certainly added some major curveballs for us to navigate. Good luck with the group.Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01103884780854638066noreply@blogger.com
