You may have noticed that I’ve been gone for awhile. Well, I’m back! In just the way we writers do, I’ve been mentally analyzing why I’ve found it so difficult to keep up with this blog and, admittedly, beating myself up a bit for it. Then one day it hit me in the head like a knuckle sandwich. When I’m writing all day long, taking the time to add writer’s resources to a blog is tough. Writing is a creative endeavor. Consequently, we writer’s seem to have only so much juice each day to devote to our writing. Some writer’s, like Stephen King, were born with oodles of juice. Others of us, not so much. I’m not talking about talent here; rather, I’m talking about the energy, drive, focus, concentration, and clarity of mind it takes to pump out really great writing–and at a rate we can make a living at it. This is why I’ve decided to take up creative visualization specifically for enhancing my creativity. Fortunately for me, my husband specializes in this arena. I’ve used his creative visualization processes before to help me get motivated to exercise and to get through treatment for breast cancer. So the other night I asked him if he could put something together to boost my creative writing juices so I can pump it out like a Stephen King or Janet Evanovich. Because he loves me, he said, “Yes.” So this is my first in a series of blogs about how I’m doing with the creative visualization, and how I’m progressing with my novel. Be sure to check in. Whatever happens with creative visualization, it’s almost always interesting. In the meantime . . .

Happy Writing!
