Taking a day off from writing to hike, visit the coast or ride my bike always gives me new ideas and get me motivated to write. A beautiful places makes me want to describe it, and that brings up emotions that I can use in writing.(less)

Quotes by Kristen James  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“That’s when I feel like the real me. I want to be a rock for you too, but I often feel inadequate to do so. I know I should express my self-doubt to you rather than leave you guessing my feelings. If I am given the chance, I will show you just how much my very essence is intertwined with yours and that I am incomplete without you. I will commit to nurturing our union, including keeping the lines of communication open.”
Kristen James, A Special Ops Christmas

“Wouldn't want to walk in those shoes or look in that mirror”
Kristen James

“A smile is a curve that sets everything straight.”
Phyllis Diller
