A writer
who is true to their craft
must
stand by their words
and
own it
Believe
in your heart of hearts
that it was meant
to go out into the world
for all to read
Stay True
Mark’s Writing Motto #28
Writers have an innate ability to connect with people through their words.
Happy New Year
As 2020 winds down, my resolution for the new year is to continue to have “HOPE” despite everything that life throws at me. Hope is a powerful motivator, a life-affirming feeling and a force to be reckon with if properly sent out into the world. Darkness cannot exist without light, so keep that spark of hope alive…have faith that everything will turn out all right. Ignite the eternal optimist within you!
Tis The Season
It’s that time of year where we tend to spread good cheer and give of ourselves to others. Everyone is usually all smiles and in good spirits but 2020 threw a wrench in all our plans. But despite all the chaos that happened, we just need to pause and remember that no matter how bad things get there is light at the end of the tunnel. We just need to have faith and keep hope alive. Hope changes everything! That positive vibe that has a tendency to be prevalent during the holiday season is something we need to carry with us into 2021. The more positivity we can spread, the more hope we can spark in others, the more faith we can sustain will make the rough times bearable. So spread cheer, spread joy this holiday season and keep it going until we can get back to normal.
A Double-Edged Sword
Adversity can break you, but it can also help build your confidence to overcome it.
“How I Make Decisions” in Six Words
Gut instincts dictate my every path.
Mark’s Writing Motto #27
A writer’s words empower eager minds that want to learn.
What I’m Thankful For
Despite what a terrible year 2020 has been, I’m thankful that I got a chance to strengthen my relationships with my family and friends…even connect with long lost ones. It helped me to lean on them for support and I learned that regardless of what life throws at you or what obstacles arise, if we face it together…together we will persevere.
I’m Just Me
I’m just a writer. I might not be the best, most talented, creative, highly inspirational or eloquent writer in the world but I’m unique and special in my own quirky way. If I find success along the way, then that’s good. But if not, I’ll continue doing what I love to do and write to my heart’s content and relish in developing my craft.
Mark’s Writing Motto #26
Explore the unknown with your writing so that your skills and instincts may rise to greater heights.
