At the same time, I'm working on hymns and my new blog, Why of a Writer. It helps to keep the genres changing when I'm itching to write but need a break from one project or the other! (less)

How do you deal with writer’s block?

I'm always prewriting, thinking, mulling things over in my head. I'll talk things out, I'll take walks--these all fit under the work of writing.

So I rarely sit down unless I already feel ready to get something down on the screen or paper. I'm not totally prepared, of course, but I have ideas in my mind I'm ready to test out on the page. If I run out of ideas, I don't usually let myself stare at the screen for long. Time to do laundry or dishes! Often, I can work out the sticking points in my head without the frustration of staring at the blinking cursor. (less)

Give Them Beauty

When I was a drama tutor in college, something struck me. I was embarrassed I hadn’t thought of it before. When you look at the hit musicals and entertainment of the mid 40s and late 50s, what do you see? I might have called it fluff. Fun, sure. Pretty, often. But the simple plots were often resolved with love and a good heart. Songs were upbeat and typically lighthearted. The entertainment of my
