Are you ready to write?

I hope so, because this is an inbetwixt day for you.  You haven't quite stepped into the year 2016, but you're almost there -- believe it or not.  And, just so you know, you probably just happened to land here on this Blog today because you need to be motivated, inspired, or shaken up slightly (take your pick)...

You see, either you want to write something amazing, or not.

Even if you just decide to sit down and jot down your thoughts for today, that would be better than just staring into space, or letting words twirl around in your brain without ever making a note of those magnificent words.  And, after all, many a genius Novelist created something from a scribbled line on a sheet of paper while sitting and drinking coffee in the middle of doing something off the beaten path.

Every now and then, you'll reach up and grab a snippet from a flash thought that comes barging into your mind.  Or you may catch a glimpse of inspiration while you are simply living life and going about your business.  You know, like the time you heard someone saying something so funny that it just slammed into the middle of one of your oh so-serious moments, and made you realize that it's really not that serious.  [You might want to write down the funny moments of life as a reminder to you on the days when you forget how it feels to laugh].  Just imagine how many people might want to read some of your funny moments.

If you like writing, it really isn't that hard to get going.  If you yearn to write, you will feel the nudge of the "gift of writing" every moment of every day, when you aren't clicking keys or writing in Journals or scribbling down thoughts on various pads of paper.

Here is my advice to you for today...

Go back into the catacombs of your mind, and remember, once upon a time, you had a dream -- you would write. And, more importantly, there is something within you that yearns to be put on paper right now.  So, my friend...

            Just Write.....

Peace, Love & Light,

This is for all Authors & Novelists with ink...

Whether you have been writing for years, or are just beginning your journey as an Author or Novelist, one thing is for sure -- you'll need to have plenty of ink as your companion.

As you already know, writing can be done at any time, and in any place.  As soon as a divine idea pops into your head, the best thing you can do for yourself is to write it down.  That one single thought or idea can lead to a Masterpiece!

You are never too old or too young to get started on your journey as an established Author.  The first step begins by picking up your pen, or clicking the keys on your keyboard.

If you need inspiration, be sure to purchase a journal that motivates you to get your mind into motion to create a writing that means something not only to you, but to the many Readers awaiting the arrival of your literary genius.

Your soul knows what you want to say.  Your spirit knows just how to say it.  And your belief in your literary ability is the KEY to success.

WE can't wait to read one of your Excerpts!

EYE ON...

Once Upon a Time...

Epic times ahead with all of the wonderful NaNoWriMo Authors, aspiring authors, writers, and poets gearing up for National Novel Writing Month that will take place online next month in November 2015!

      NaNoWriMo.org ~ Love, love, love it!  You must try writing for a month straight, if you have never done so before, and find out what you're made of.  I've participated for many years writing online for National Novel Writing Month (affectionately known as, NaNoWriMo), because a good online writing friend of mine urged me to do so many years ago (Jen~bless your Writer's heart) -- and I've been participating ever since....

      When I first heard of NaNoWriMo, (thanks to my friend Jen), I said to myself, (and out loud),  "what in the world is that about?" ... and, "what kind of name is that?" -- then I patiently listened as Jen explained why she enjoyed participating in this month-long writing phenomonom.  You'll really enjoy meeting other Authors & Writers (both online and in person) -- depending upon the area in which you live, you can meet up with other NaNoWriMo participants at Writing Events in your area.

      If you love writing, and/or are an aspiring author, do participate, because you'll also receive advice about your literary creation as you're working on it; you'll get plenty of tips if you seek them; you'll be able to obtain pep talks; you'll be able to join in on the Forums inside; and you'll also enjoy plenty of helpful support.

      Here's the good thing about striving to reach a goal that involves writing a Novel in a month's time -- it means you'll have to FOCUS.  Whenever you focus on the story (or stories) that live inside of you, then you open the pathway that leads to the birthing process.  And, my oh my, what a beautiful baby you'll make!

      If you plan to participate in National Novel Writing Month this year, don't think too hard about what you are going to create.  In fact, try to remember that focusing and thinking are two different things altogether.

Here ~ Let me help you, get yourself a Journal ...

      Of course, when you first open up your Journal, there will be blank pages.  The Journal then begins to take on a life of its own once you focus on putting your pen to the paper.  Notice that I did not tell you to think about what you were going to write.  Simply FOCUS on putting your pen to the paper.  Let your hand do what it does best ~ WRITE...

      Once upon a time, you never would have found so many beautiful and gifted people writing Novels in a month's time online.  Well, we are about to step into November 2015, and together we've got our EYE on National Novel Writing Month...

See YOU there!

 

Writer's Insightful Tip for OCTOBER 2015:

If you stop and place your hands on a keyboard and create a story that makes you do a double-take because of the power of the words; and if your story causes your emotions to stir, and your eyebrows raise in amazement, then I suggest that you cherish the "gift", because YOU are a Writer!

Peace, Love & Light,

René

EYE ON...

Once Upon a Time...

by René Allen

     Once upon a time there were typewriters, REAL typewriters.  Think back...Remember when you had to exert pressure, and press really, really hard to make the keys hit the paper?  (Some of our young Writers and Authors may not remember that, and that is okay -- just pretend).  Let us compare that to times when we have to think really, really hard to make the words come out of our souls in just the right sequence for our perfect Novels.  Ah, now I must rest a second, because this month you'll hear stories from me about pulling the words out of my soul and laying them down on this Blog just for you.  There is no better way to spring into action with our writings than to have company that knows how to press really, really hard when there is a delay with flowing words.  Imagine the fun we'll have together!

Smile, and get ready,
