Day #1 – Making the decision to WRITE | Joleen Speer
https://joleenspeer.wordpress.com/2015/03/15/day-1-making-the-decision-to-write
March 15, 2015. Day #1 – Making the decision to WRITE. Today I made a life-changing decision. I decided that “tomorrow” is finally here. All these years I’ve been telling myself that. Just one more day. 8230; Enough is enough. I am not going to wake up tomorrow as a millionaire whom can afford to quit her job. I am not going to wake up smarter, funnier, or more worldly, than I am right now. This is kinda how I feel right about now. Oops! Hmm, maybe not. I wonder if it’s Aaron’s paranormal...Maybe youR...

My Top Six Writing Tips | Joleen Speer
https://joleenspeer.wordpress.com/2014/03/21/my-top-six-writing-tips
March 21, 2014. My Top Six Writing Tips. I love the down-to-earth way this was written! Great advice for a new writer. The only thing I’d add is that at some point you need at least one other person to edit also; if for no other reason than your mind will simply skip over typos after you’ve reread something so many times and not caught it yourself. Just remember, it’s ultimately YOUR book – you decide which edits you like or dislike. The material has become immaterial. Not even the experts are experts.

Monthly Archives: June 2013. June 11, 2013. Meet Chanti and Breanna. SEVIER COUNTY, TENNESSEE. Chanti stared at the blank piece of paper, pen poised and ready to write, with a look of horror. A 30-page essay, on the benefits of Gravity, due in just two days? Sissy, where are you? Chanti, there you are! Daddy thought you’d be out riding by now, but I knew you wasn’t cause I seen Whisper in the east pasture and everybody knows he’s your favorite.”.

August 11, 2013. 8220;My big fat greek moment” by Sheu. This blog is by a close friend of ours who is in GREECE right now; I encourage you to read posts from the beginning…. The other day, I had a big, fat, Greek moment with George, Anke, and Lambros. I smiled really big inside. Lambros was picking out a color for his post. He asked for a green so I picked the standard green that’s offered. What do you mean more open? Opennnn, more open! Author of Fictional Realms View all posts by Joleen Speer. You are ...

My Own Reality Check | Joleen Speer
https://joleenspeer.wordpress.com/2013/08/12/my-own-reality-check
August 12, 2013. My Own Reality Check. A friend of mine shared a simple, but heart-wrenching article. With me today. The blogger touched on the subject of life being too fast-paced, and how her daughter opened her eyes to how their rushed lifestyle was truly affecting her. As the blogger referred to herself as a bully , I took a moment to ask myself are you a bully too? Do you rush your children? Do the words hurry up come from your own mouth a little too often? Life is a journey, not a destination.

Monthly Archives: March 2013. March 26, 2013. So I have decided that I am finally ready to write. You’re probably wondering, “okay, what’s the big deal – writing isn’t that hard? 8221; … I didn’t think so either. Not because I am a bad writer. Not because I lack writing skill or original ideas. I simply found there doesn’t seem to be enough extra time in the day! So how am I going to find time to write? Anything that is not absolutely necessary is going bye-bye. Unhealthy friendships?
