Check out this website I stumbled across:
Not for Robots
Writing is hard. People for whom writing is not hard are robots and should go away. Thank you.
I’m not telling anymore, just that when I found myself in the midst of the site I knew it was perfect for Sundays for the Soul. Let me know what you think in the comments.

What an excellent site and such an appropriate time in my life right now. I’ve decided to finally get that book in my head out on paper and the fear of everything has tried getting in my way several times this year…and we’re only in the first month! This site is exactly what I need. THANKS!

Love the robot art – it is very cool. Also loved the quotes – esp. the one about writing being the toughest for writers. I laughed out loud at the Mark Twain quote and how true that is – I often feel as though I get the bug! Can’t wait to peruse more!

I love the idea of the attic notebook. Something about forcing yourself to NOT re-read what you have written until far in the future seems very intriguing.

Wow!! Wow!! I just loved looking at Not for Robots! I was mesmerized. I copied some of her famous “writing” quotes. One of the best ones for me is (in short) “Two rules for professional writers: a) you don’t have to write everyday for 4 hours, b) you can’t do anything else. The rest comes of itself.”–Raymond Chandler. I went to other sites Laine suggested and continued being mesmerized. I’ve always wanted to make clothspin dolls! And here is a step-by-step post to show you how!! Thanks for makiing my day!
