POW stands for Power Of Writing.
I’m reminding you that every time you write, something valuable occurs.
And that value is powerfull.
I’m also reminding you that your mind and inner critics will try to trick you into thinking that’s not true.
Just say out loud:
“POW!”
And envision any critics flying into the air-like in a cartoon where nobody gets…

Your writing will respond beautifully to you letting it flow.
Flowing is non linear, it’s full of grace and wonder.
Fresh peaches and slants of sunlight are commonly seen during times of flow.
Flowing can occur in the bathtub and in the shower, and it’s no mistake that water FLOWS, as your writing will, when you allow it.
Flow…

You are a spiritual being, having a human experience.
Your writing is part of your spiritual expression.
Overscheduling your writing will diminish your writing AND your joy in living.
I can hear you wondering: “But what if I’m not writing at ALL?”
That’s where faith and MicroMOVEments come in.
Experiment, explore, EXPRESS yourself through your writing.
That’s what it’s for.

We decide to occupy ourselves with these things to the…

I’m so happy Elizabeth Gilbert wrote Eat, Pray, Love. Besides being a marvelous book, it’s really fun to play with the title.
I also really enjoy Jack Kornfield’s book and title; “After the Ecstasy, the Laundry” for these same reasons.
Writing is meant to fit in with our actual lives, not be separate from it.
So many people…

Don’t Write While Driving!
Actually, this is untrue.
You can write in your mind, anywhere your mind goes.
Some of my best writing occurs in the bathtub, while washing dishes and out walking.
I’m often stopping on a walk to make notes in my little notebook, and now also in my “smartphone” notes section.
Thinking about writing *IS* writing too!
In…

Writing loves mentoring.
They go together, like everything that’s good goes together.
I’ve been mentored by so many great writers and people in my life.
I’ve also had the great privilege to mentor other writers, through my WINS (Write It Now with SARK- A Haven and Accelerator for Writers) writing program and individually with people over the years.
As…
