Something I came across in my travels...

by plainsue

Rated: E · Book · Internet/Web · #492316

A writer uses whatever he/she make come across to get her creative juices going.

I surf many websites..seeking advise and seeking ideas from many sources.Sometimes, a quote or some kind of saying..hits home..or gets my creative juices moving..Here's a quote with no author behind it, I found on lablaugh.com..
The only way...
The only way you truly fail is to stop trying altogether.

I want to be a writer...but I get writer's block and stress..kills my creative sense..so I seek....Thank you

In response to "Why do we write?"

Hey Kare Enga! I like what you wrote. Thanks for sharing. When you said, I grow bolder as I grow older, well I believe that too.

In response to "Why do we write?"

I write to let the gas out... no, not always pretty; but if I hold it in I blow!

Sometimes I do want to make a point and sometimes I have to choose my words carefully. That said, I grow bolder as I grow older.

Warm fuzzies are nice, and far better than cold pricklies... but... reality can bite.

In response to "Words at work can be bad! Very Bad"

Well, Kare Enga in Montana. because of incident I got a spoken to from my Supervisor, her supervisor, union representative, and human resources, Wow what a day! They told me to apologize to her. Part of me wants to but the other says it was her fault. I will eventually apologize. Thanks for the read.

It's not always easy to navigate a workplace. There are times I misspoke; but, other times I should have filed formal complaints.

Time to move on if the place becomes too toxic; one should be happy.

In response to "Not a St. Patrick's Day for me..."

I became an orphan this week; found out today. You are fortunate to have had close family. Our reality is a bit more complicated.

In response to "Holiday blahhhs"

Find happiness in what you have. If East Lansing has snow, rejoice in snow!

[I grew up in the Snow Belt.]

I left everything years ago. Lost contact with lots of wonderful people; but, it was too toxic to stay.

The last two years of Covid have crushed me. I need to travel and it's still iffy internationally.

In response to "Pandemic"

As a senior I concur. Over a year later it still causes divisions within the older generation and between generations as well. Montana is an anti-masker, anti-vaxxer, anti-everything state.

In response to "Pandemic"

I think the pandemic has been so detrimental for people's mental well-being. We won't even know the full scope of it until after the pandemic is over.

LostGhost: Seeking & Learning

In response to "Questions to my readers???"

1) No.

2) Improving still.

3) The ideas play around in my head. There are many. Before writing, I never realized that my mind stored so much.

4) Nobody in my family reads. My mother reads, but she feels my stories are not that good.

5) Yes. I read them, review them to learn.

6) Hobby.

7) What is a usual muse?

8) Computer. I only use pen and paper to scribble.

9) Sometimes, yes. But I don't fret about it. It happens. I have 1001 things to finish in life. I just go and finish those things.

10) Sometimes, yes. But it is more like a compulsion to write.

Cape Cod Weekend

I had a great weekend with a group STI at Cape Cod. All singles. I took a greyhound all the way to Hyannis, MA. How do writers get their information or ideas..by taking rides like that! Everyday is a bus ride. You see all and hear all. Cape Cod was a great place If I was a writer or painter on one of those sand dune shacks..I would go nuts. But isolation does a writer/painter good. Awesome beuticful!Happy writing to all. plainsue
