We’re in the home stretch for this month of writing, and I’m excited to share these last days of this writing adventure with all of you!

BE INSPIRED
If we’re being honest, there are some days this month where writing has been more difficult than others. Sometimes I’m just not motivated to sit down at my computer; other times I just can’t find that spark of an idea.
That’s one of the many reasons why I fell in love with Elisabeth Ellington’s blog post This Moment on her blog, The Dirigible Plum. In her writing, Elisabeth brings to life the things that are happening around her at that exact moment in time. It’s a perfect reminder for us all to slow down and notice the everyday things in our environment–and to paint them with our words in the process.
