If I can't think of something to write, I believe I must not be listening. I must be too busy. I get more into quiet moments and listen. Then the words come again.

The bests thing about being a writer is the ability to create stories and poetry from nothing. Words come to mind then I write them. I enjoy the freedom to express myself. I enjoy words.

Keep writing no matter what. If you are inspired to write, then write. You may receive cruel reviews. Ignore these, even though they might hurt for a time. Take note of the constructive comments you receive as a way to improve your craft.
Be you. Don't copy others' style. There is too much of that already.

Talking to people and listening to God. Most of what I write comes to me from listening.

I got the idea for "A Poor Child" by talking to people about my previous books. I have been told that my books are inspiring and they also help people with their own situations. I wrote this book to help people through abusive situations using myself as an example. Hoping to empower others to take control of their lives to make their own way in a positive manner.
