Writing Quotes

I learned that you should feel when writing, not like Lord Byron on a mountain top, but like a child stringing beads in kindergarten - happy, absorbed and quietly putting one bead on after another. Brenda Ueland

WRITERS GROUP CONVENTION





This Sunday, some of us from my writing group (Fairfield Writers Group-Queensland) went to a Writers Group Convention at the Enoggera Bowls Club. It was excellent. Several authors talked about their journey to publication and a number of writers groups talked about their activities.

It's so good to mix with people who have the same interest as yourself and to maybe learn something new as well. Here is a link to further information about the convention.

Queensland Writers Week - Update Day 7

Hi! Readers - what a good day! 645 words for the last day of QWW.

I have enjoyed being a part of QWW immensely, and the best thing of all is that I have kick started my novel and commenced on chapter 2.


Happy writing and reading to everyone.

Queensland Writers Week - Update Day 6

Hullo Readers - I haven't written today, but did research for my novel instead. I am ever so pleased, I found information on my maternal great grandfather that I'll be able to use in my book.

More writing tomorrow!

Queensland Writers Week - Update Day 5

Am in the midst of a block, but still managed to do 428 words. Having trouble with my paternal  great grandfather's story so have switched over to my maternal grandmother. Hope this block goes away by tomorrow!
