Also, I hoped to share the idea that sometimes to move forward, we not only have to let go of the bad stuff (anger, resentment, inadequacy, and betrayal), we also may need to let go of some of the good stuff too. I really believe that letting go of my romantic love for my ex, it released me. Thanks for stopping by and sharing your heart with me.<br /><br />Blessings,<br />Laurie1writerlaurieepps@gmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12257614630313547483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527344750595892879.post-79205538623359201742014-10-14T08:23:00.843-04:002014-10-14T08:23:00.843-04:00Nice thoughts.

I start writing my Monday blogs on Wednesdays, and I don't stop editing generally till Sunday night! I confess, I've got an edge of the average writer here since I'm a full-time college student, I'm definitely busy enough.... But setting a timer is also something that has helped me. Two hours is absolutely it on a blog post. You just have to find what works for you and do it!

It still bothers the heck out of me when my blogs are posted ( I write and schedule them ahead of time) and a big editing 'opportunity' jumps out at me. Then...do I go quickly and fix it, hoping that not many of my readers have read it yet, or relax and let it go?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13416697635939516289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527344750595892879.post-2006436235724845682013-07-03T01:55:06.426-04:002013-07-03T01:55:06.426-04:00Thank you so much for stopping by.

I have had to think about what types of things I'd like to say, and really think about what I can offer the virtual world. Since I dig organization in the written word, I think I may showcase some of my school work, talk about novels, invite guest bloggers, and maybe even write a column about what's happening in the upstate every weekend, <br /><br />In an ideal world, I'd like to ultimately like to do some technical writing for engineers, but I naturally write short stories and non-fiction. Of course, like every other writer I'd like to write my own novel. Also, I've dreamed of writing and illustrating my own series of children's books. I even have a collection of stories that I have written in prose style for just that purpose.1writerlaurieepps@gmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12257614630313547483noreply@blogger.com
