Tighty Writie: September 2011
http://tightywritie.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
The transformation of thoughts into words. Friday, September 23, 2011. The power of words. Excuse me.*clears throat*. moves soapbox into position. Words have amazing power. They have the power to lift us up or shoot us down. They bring warmth or freezing cold based on how they are spoken. Words can teach and words can exasperate. Words matter. When my 8 year old came home with a math worksheet we reviewed it like all parents do. Here is one of the math problems:. Explain how you know. Monday, September 1...

The transformation of thoughts into words. Monday, April 23, 2012. The Lie That Tells a Truth part 2.

The transformation of thoughts into words. Monday, February 13, 2012. Hi ho hi ho, it's off to edit I go. I thought writing my story was hard. Fun, but hard. Now it's time to edit. This is hard and I'm not sure it's fun. I haven't decided yet. It's a little masochistic because you take what you love, what poured out from you and then you look at it and call your own baby ugly. Do you ever have these concerns? What is your process for editing your stories? Thursday, February 2, 2012. Follow me on Twitter!
