Something to Think About The last time I was here, I told you I had found freedom; I should think about what I want to share as a writer. I wanted to share something today. I'm working on my book to publish on Amazon's online platform. I've changed the cover, name and I even altered the story I had previously self-published.

Freedom For Me! I was going through Writer's Digest's 'Famous Writing Quotes' page, when I discovered this gem attributed to writer Barbara Kingslover. This quote, I'm about to share, has truly touched me and I thought it was important to share it with you; "Don't try to figure out what other people want to hear from you; figure out what you have to say. It's the one and only thing you have to offer." When I read it, I felt sun rays open insided my clouded brain. And the great chain that once imprisoned me that is wheeled by any wirter's dreadful foe - worry , was suddenly loosed, and I was set free.It felt as though I was an over-inflated balloon, on the point of popping, and someone came and let out some of the air and now I was just right again.
