I just found this link a few days ago and want to pass it along. CBC Books is a website containing all things writerly created by the Canadian Broadcasting Company. (I can?t tell you how lucky I feel to?live where?a national broadcaster promotes reading and writing.)?Within that site is a set of pages called Canada Writes, which contains a series of writing tips from Canadian authors. I?ve only had a chance to read a couple of them and I?m already printing and saving them to read again. So if you?re looking for some great writing tips, check out Writing Tips at Canada Writes.If you?re a mystery writer, you also might want to explore Louise Penny?s five-part series on writing mysteries. Here?s one to explore: http://www.cbc.ca/books/canadawrites/2012/05/louise-penny-master-class-things-i-wish-id-known-before-starting-my-first-book.html
You can tell that the muse/creativity/inspiration and I aren?t on speaking terms at the moment because that?s when I read about writing rather than do the writing. I?m hoping that our separation doesn?t last too much longer, but in the meantime, I think it?s okay to fill the cup with some reading, too.
I have a friend who does daily writing exercises, whether they are about her book or not. I admire her enormously, and I think she?s absolutely on the right track. I also believe that it?s something I should be doing, too. If I want to keep calling myself a writer, I feel that I should be writing every day. I have writing gigs with deadlines that help pay the bills, but my creative writing has stagnated for a long time?and I miss it. So, I?m going to pledge to write every day for a month and keep you posted on my progress. If you want to join me, we can keep each other motivated, and I?d love the company!
