http://jacquelynwheeler.blogspot.com/2011/10/its-time-to-write.html
Having a blast breaking the rules of writing and publishing. Saturday, October 29, 2011. It's Time to Write! Summer is over, and I have finally concluded my annual creativity hibernation and am starting to write again. Hibernation? You ask. Doesn't that happen in winter? So here I am blogging again after the summer drought, and what better topic to discuss than the perfect way to launch yourself back into your craft: NaNoWriMo. What do you say?

Jacquelyn Wheeler's Blog: Here we go!
http://jacquelynwheeler.blogspot.com/2011/03/here-we-go.html
Having a blast breaking the rules of writing and publishing. Friday, March 18, 2011. You may have already heard the news, but self-published authors are finally "making it.". Thanks to a huge rise in ebook sales, authors like Amanda Hocking, who writes paranormal young adult books, didn't have to give up her dream after failing to get a publisher interested in her work. Instead, she started publishing ebooks, and the rest is history. Check out the story here:. March 19, 2011 at 12:13 AM. The great thing ...

Jacquelyn Wheeler's Blog: Balancing Light and Dark
http://jacquelynwheeler.blogspot.com/2011/06/balancing-light-and-dark.html
Having a blast breaking the rules of writing and publishing. Sunday, June 5, 2011. Balancing Light and Dark. Ever since this unfortunate Wall Street Journal article. Appeared, Twitter has exploded with countless posts using the #yasaves. The interesting thing is that some look at this picture and think it means that the books are promoting all the crap on the wall. My interpretation is this:. Kids know where they've started; books help them see where they might go. If you're still unconvinced that teens ...

Jacquelyn Wheeler's Blog: Coping with Professional Jealousy
http://jacquelynwheeler.blogspot.com/2011/03/coping-with-professional-jealousy.html
Having a blast breaking the rules of writing and publishing. Thursday, March 3, 2011. Coping with Professional Jealousy. Thankfully, I chose the latter. I love helping other writers and giving them feedback and guidance, and usually they’re wonderful to work with. A few times I’ve gotten no more than a cursory thanks or haven’t heard from them again, and it’s hard not to feel regret at the hours I spent on someone else’s work that could have been spent on my own. Labels: writing jealousy creativity.

Having a blast breaking the rules of writing and publishing. Saturday, May 21, 2011. Taking Your Story to the End of the World. Amidst all the madness about the world supposedly ending today, I came across this amazing video. Which shows artist Zack Smithey. Painting while Messiaen's Quartet for the End of Time. You can see where I'm going with this. June 1, 2011 at 9:50 PM. June 4, 2011 at 8:38 AM. I loved watching the video - envisioning what you said while I enjoyed listening to the music. The world i...

Having a blast breaking the rules of writing and publishing. Sunday, November 28, 2010. Developing a Gratitude Practice. If the only prayer you ever say in your whole life is "thank you," that would suffice. In my family, Thanksgiving day is about spending time with extended family, stuffing ourselves with delicious food, and giving thanks for the things we have. But what I've come to discover through my journey as a writer is that giving thanks should not happen once a year but every single day. Or just...

Jacquelyn Wheeler's Blog: September 2010
http://jacquelynwheeler.blogspot.com/2010/09
Having a blast breaking the rules of writing and publishing. Saturday, September 18, 2010. A Work in Progress. On our way out to the desert a couple weeks ago, I caught a glance of my face in the side mirror and was surprised to see how much I’ve aged recently. I froze for a moment, fully aware that I was standing at a crossroads and had two options:. Freak out and make myself miserable, spending the rest of my life fighting the inevitable, or:. I’ve found a similar joy in treating Rising Shadow. From co...

Jacquelyn Wheeler's Blog: Coming Home to Your Writing
http://jacquelynwheeler.blogspot.com/2011/01/coming-home-to-your-writing.html
Having a blast breaking the rules of writing and publishing. Thursday, January 6, 2011. Coming Home to Your Writing. I've written a lot of posts about the process of writing, of courting your muse, finding time to write, and so on. A big part of what we do as writers is find a way to do the thing we love when we don't feel like we love it so much anymore. But when we come out of one of those troughs and reconnect, the feeling I always have is that of coming home. And my relationship with my writing i...
