I admire anybody who has the guts to write anything at all.
--E.B. White
My goal for today is to write anything, anything at all on In Her Eyes. I got a bit discouraged about my latest critique and have barely written since. Quite a change from the high I was feeling after last weekend's writing conference.
Yesterday, I bought Monica Wood's Description. I'm reading the chapter about description and point of view so I can take my writing to the next level.
And yes, I realize that this blog is more a personal journal than anything else. When my website goes live, I will work on making it a combination of personal journal and topics that might be of interest to others.

Hi, I've been reading your blog for a while...don't get discouraged!!! Keep writing!!!
You may want to think about meditation as well, in that you put some relaxing music on, or none at all, sit and relax with your eyes closed.
Then, think about your story - not the little details but the overall theme/objective and see where your mind goes, what you see.
You may be surprised at details and/or things that pop up that may take you in a new direction.
Also, I randomly found this man's website about some creative writing exercises
http://www.du.edu/~bkiteley/exercises.html
Try to do some of them and see if it helps you!
Keep writing.
