Writing Prompt: For today’s writing prompt, I’m borrowing an idea from Saturday’s HeartLa writer’s group presentation given by my friend and fellow writer, Christee Gabour Atwood. In this exercise, you will be creating your inner-writer superhero. Think of superpowers you would like to have as a writer to make your writing successful. For example, a photographic memory allows you instant access to all of your writing research and you have the ability to transfer your words to the computer screen with just a thought. A super imagination can also be a superpower, so let it run wild and claim as many superpowers as you like.

Inspirational Quote: “We all look normal on the outside, but there’s something inside us fighting to get out”

Inspirational Quote: “You cannot hope to sweep someone else away by the force of your writing until it has been done to you.”

Sweater for Mardi Gras

Sweater for Mardi Gras

As I was sweeping the week’s worth of cat fur from my two feline companions, I began thinking about all the things I mindlessly throw out. If I save the cat fur for several months, I might have enough for a nice sweater. Cat fur is soft, right? Granted, the pewter gray isn’t pretty, but with Rit red-violet #131 and a few knitting skills, I could have a cozy sweater by Mardi Gras 2013-provided the Mayans were wrong. As for looking like this in my Mardi Gras sweater…I wish!

Writing Prompt: You have published a best-selling novel and you’re now waiting to go on stage and accept an award from your favorite author who is presenting it to you. Describe that perfect day in your life from start to finish.

Inspirational Quote: I am impelled, not to squeak like a grateful and apologetic mouse, but to roar like a lion out of pride in my profession.”

-John Steinbeck
