Whether by pen, by keyboard, or by my voice… I can transport you to another place, another time, or even another world!
The most amazing adventures begin as the pen touches down on an empty page, taking you to places you’d never dreamt of … yet!
When I write, all the pain, pressure, and frustration over life seem to evaporate, leaving me free to sail the high seas! The possibilities for new adventures, new friends, and new dreams becomes endless at the end of that pen. It’s funny that I answered another recent prompt about pens. Now we’ve left that prompt, but somehow my answer ended up on pens again.
Oh, well! Let’s all have a cookie to take our minds off of pens…
What is not to like about writing? Words can take us anywhere we want to go, without anything but a pen and paper. One can travel, vacation, and fall in love within the pages of words. I read somewhere, that no one knows the heart of a man, except the spirit within him, and I guess for me, writing is a way of sharing from deep within my spirit.
I tried using words verbally, but after 54 years it seems that speaking out loud does not work. I literally speak out loud more to the man upstairs, than I speak to anyone who walks around on the earth. You may think I am full of it, but truly, I speak on a regular basis to less than five individuals, and one of them has to because he said “I Do”. My hubby is my better half, though, and I could not function well without him. After divorce and remarriage, I was routed out of my church, and abandoned by many, so now, I find that less is more. Does that make me callous? Maybe, but I do not want this to be a moody Monday!
Much of my life was spent trying to share thoughts and feelings, through my actions… works of service, active in church, homeschooled my children, supported others during the loss of loved ones, and anything I thought would show love, or how I felt about others. Looking back now, I do not regret doing those things, but I have learned how futile they were, for me at least.
I had writers block for over 10 years, and it wasn’t until this last March that this passion returned to my heart. I haven’t stopped writing since. The response from everyone here at WordPress, fueled my desire to pursue my passion. I finished one Live Novel, which is my actual story, and am gearing up for another in the fall.
I don’t expect you all to like and buy into what I write about, but I am so grateful that you accept me as an equal human being, with feelings, passions, sorrows, and Joys… just like you!
