Hi Friend, 

I hope your November is starting out well!

Over here, Ezra (my husband) and I have started National Novel Writing Month, (Nanowrimo). He's started with a bang. I've started with a crawl.

However you chose to start Nanowrimo this month, good luck!

And if you choose not to join in the frenzy and intensity that can be Nanowrimo, then I wish you happy writing, whatever your focus and your speed.

To refresh your memory and to restate who I am: I am a novelist, creativity coach for writers, and book midwife. I hold your hand while you push.

My philosophy: (as of today -- it's always evolving) As we novelists travel into our novels far far away from our day-to-day life, we leave ourselves so that we find our way home back to self -- heart, mind, and soul -- refreshed and renewed. 

What is it like for you to diving into your writing, and then come back out?


Welcome to our Creativity Sparks community! A part of this CreativitySparks (tm) newsletter.
