Columbia Writers' Workshop II: Zooilla and the Art of Non-Fiction Proposals

http://columbiawritersworkshop.blogspot.com/2015/03/zooilla-and-art-of-non-fiction-proposals.html

Sunday, March 8, 2015. Zooilla and the Art of Non-Fiction Proposals. By Laura P. Valtorta. Some people live fortunate lives. I am extra fortunate, but not as fortunate as Zooilla, who has an agent, writes creative non-fiction, and teaches at the University of South Carolina. I call Zooilla “super lucky.” He makes a living writing about animals, and teaching the squirrels who attend USC. Who earns money writing about monkeys, opossums, and bees and gets free trips to India and Brazil thrown in? Zooilla is...

Leadership Methods Foundation

http://www.lmfweb.com/Index.html

If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more, and become more, you are a leader (John Quincy Adams). You will never make it as a shepherd if you do not like the smell of sheep. The best way to develop a loser is to never show them how to become a winner. It is not right to allow wrong to believe that wrong is right. It is not wrong to defend right's right to be right. Try to live your life so that the older you grow the more incredible your testimony becomes.

Columbia Writers' Workshop II: The Predicament of Procrastination

http://columbiawritersworkshop.blogspot.com/2015/05/the-predicament-of-procrastination.html

Sunday, May 3, 2015. The Predicament of Procrastination. By Julia Rogers Hook. If Shakespeare had had social media we might have never known Romeo and Juliet or Hamlet or even the ever-charming MacBeths. Email during the time of Dickens would have left the miserly Scrooge and sweet Tiny Tim buried forever with dear Charlie. And yet I seem to always find myself procrastinating when it comes to writing. I’m always in awe of my colleagues as they doggedly do whatever it takes to get their work out the...

Sunday, May 31, 2015. Art Responds to Black Lives Matter Movement. Photo by Sumter County Gallery of Art. Ekphrastic poetry is poetry based on works of art.

Columbia Writers' Workshop II: Writing with Clabber

http://columbiawritersworkshop.blogspot.com/2015/04/writing-with-clabber.html

Sunday, April 26, 2015. By Laura P. Valtorta. The best thing about filmmaking is the collaboration it requires. Shooting a scene correctly requires an experienced crew – director, cinematographer, lighting specialist, and sound person. Without those elements, the production values suffer. The audience notices distracting mistakes. Clabber worships GOD and DOG. I’m an atheist who can’t abide animals in the house. Clabber is short; I’m tall. Either way, the meeting went well. I sat back and listened to...

Sunday, April 12, 2015. Grout vs. Greatness. By Julia Rogers Hook. Becoming a writer is not an easy task. Oh sure…people will tell you that you “tell great stories” and that you should write them down. 8220;You should write a book! 8220;You are soooo funny!
