Today’s Good Word ~ Voice
Our voices are unique to each of us. Security systems offer voice prints as a security check up. Our voices are a primary way we communicate with each other. We adjust how our voice sounds to enhance our communication. How do you use the power of your voice? Do you use it to build walls or build bridges? Do you use it to heal or hide? We can use our voice for good and to inspire others. It’s a good choice.

✒️ Writers’ Wisdom ~ Feeling What You Write

✒️ Writers’ Wisdom ~ Don’t Worry About What People Think
““I used to be afraid about what people might say or think after reading what I had written. I am not afraid anymore, because when I write, I am not trying to prove anything to anyone, I am just expressing myself and my opinions. It’s ok if my opinions are different from those of the reader, each of us can have his own opinions. So writing is like talking, if you are afraid of writing, you may end up being afraid of talking”

✒️ Writers’ Wisdom ~ Five Common Traits of Good Writers
“Five common traits of good writers: (1) They have something to say. (2) They read widely and have done so since childhood. (3) They possess what Isaac Asimov calls a “capacity for clear thought,” able to go from point to point in an orderly sequence, an A to Z approach. (4) They’re geniuses at putting their emotions into words. (5) They possess an insatiable curiosity, constantly asking Why and How.” ~
✒️ Writers’ Wisdom ~ Write for the Joy of Writing
“I believe that half the trouble in the world comes from people asking ‘What have I achieved?’ rather than ‘What have I enjoyed?’ I’ve been writing about a subject I love as long as I can remember–horses and the people associated with them, anyplace, anywhere, anytime. I couldn’t be happier knowing that young people are reading my books. But even more important to me is that I’ve enjoyed so much the writing of them.”
