If I had a dollar for every time someone told me they want to write a novel, I'd be rich! 

Read the Top 10 Reasons to Write a Novel:
  1. It's on your Bucket List, so you need to write this novel before the day comes, when you never wake up.
  2. You want a career, that you can work at, until the day comes, where you no longer can.
  3. You get miserable reading books that you give one star ratings to. Obviously, you can write something better than that drivel, right?

Road Trips are inevitable when you live in the middle of nowhere. Occasionally, you need to make a long distance journey elsewhere, sometimes through lots of snow, to reach a point where other writers are gathered to share secrets... secrets about the craft of writing.

To write a novel is one thing, but to make your reader feel pure emotion while reading your novel, whether it be frustration, anger, sadness, love or even a little happiness, this is something to be proud of. You need to affect the reader in a significant way... in a way that will cause them to come alive and want to talk about it. It, being your novel. And, if they talk about your novel, you, as a writer and author, have done your job. Sounds so easy, doesn't it?

Where Writers Write

Sometimes, it takes some time to find the perfect place for you to create the perfect writing piece. 

Whether you're working on a novel or a short story, you need a place to call your own, where the words will flow like cream soda into the glass... easy and fast. The problem is, today you created the best poem or story, while seated in the quiet library, but tomorrow, when you arrive at the same place, you may experience a totally, different feeling. Your writing has become blah! The words are not going together like peanut butter and jam, it's now going together, more like peanut butter and green olives. Basically, it just doesn't work at all. Therefore, you need backup plans.

    I love reading, writing and Skittles. I’ve been writing for 
    a decade or two now, but only over the past few years have I started calling myself a writer and actually believing it. I want to share my experience with you.
