Hello everyone and welcome back to my little corner of the world! I'm so glad you decided to stop in again today.
I hope that you had an opportunity to have a look at my short book of poetry on Smashwords.com, if you haven't yet, please do. You can read a sample of it here: https://www.smashwords.com/profile/view/LettersbyLisa. Any kind, constructive criticism that you may have would be greatly appreciated. You can either leave it as a comment here on my blog, or on Smashwords.com.
I haven't written much since I posted last week, so I don't have too much to update you on, but I'm always writing new poetry and I did write a couple of new poems. It seems as though I have periods where the words just flow freely without effort, and then there are other times when I get in this mode and I just sort of shut down. Well, right now I'm in that mode. I've noticed that for me this shut down mode usually occurs when my mind is preoccupied with too many other things. I try to force myself to sit down, clear my mind of everything and write, but it just doesn't work. So instead of postponing my writing and going on to something else, I write about whatever comes to mind until I pass through this period and I get my flow back. I guess these periods are what are referred to as writer's block. I believe the main thing is to continue to write, even if it's not necessarily a specific project that I want to be working on. For me, it's very important to be consistent.
Well that's about all I have for you this week. I appreciate you stopping in today and I look forward to your visit next Tuesday! Thank you all very much, and I hope that you have a safe and productive week.
