There has been such a fog in my head lately. Writing anything in this space has been a chore like I have never experienced since starting this blog.
I think the God may be trying to change the focus.
Give me a new direction…but it is not quite clear. It is still a bit fuzzy.
Yet, I know that not writing, leads to more not writing. And pretty soon a few days turns into a week…a week into two weeks and so on. I do not want to abandon this space. I don’t believe that is what I am supposed to do.
I know I need to write. So, I have resolved that today, I am going to write.
My friend Denise J. Hughes wrote in her book On Becoming a Writer
To write is to join a conversation. This is what ever blogger does. We enter an online party where discussions are in progress. We lurk. And when we’re ready, we tap that publish button. We join the conversation.
So rather than continue to sit back and wait for divine inspiration, I am going to join the conversation…again.
If you are a blogger and want to hone your craft, Denise’s book is worth the $4.99 investment. She teaches writing at a university and her book is written in such a style that it is easy to read and I have truly learned a lot.
I remember the first time I met Denise in real life. It was at the Allume conference in 2012. When we met she said she had read my blog and liked it or enjoyed it or something. I cannot remember her exact words because I was worried that an English and writing teacher had READ. MY. BLOG. Oh my word! What grammar errors had I made?
Anyway, writing leads to more writing. Therefore, since I believe I am called to this space. Since I believe that I am supposed to write…I am writing.
I am joining the conversation and waiting to see where this road leads…
If you write, what are you doing

I'm glad you mentioned Denise's book because I've had it on my Kindle for awhile but forgot it was there. I need to bump it up higher on my to-read list.
"Writing leads to more writing." I agree. And I'm glad you're writing (which will lead to more writing…). 🙂
Thank you, Lisa, for stopping by. It is such an encouragement to me.
So thankful you are writing and joining the conversation. Blogging can become such a chore at times. I long for Godly wisdom and revelation in my writing. Yet I find when I simply write, sooner or later the inspiration comes.
God says He uses us as "iron sharpening iron" with each other and you have things of value to say when you write. So glad you have decided to continue because you may never know who you are touching when you write….
By the way, I really like your new design…..
