Ah, to be a Writer

Part of what is so wonderful about the world of writing, is the lack of constraints.  In reality, a writer is only limited by his or her imagination.  It is so easy to live within the constraints society thrusts upon us, as well as the ones we place upon ourselves.  It is much more challenging to try and step outside of the virtual box around us and think of something entirely unique.  I like to think of it as a great mental exercise.   After all, a little bit of "what if?" thinking does a person good.  Asking "what if?" can lead us to inspiring stories, and possibly even monumental real-life events.  It causes us to try and look at scenarios from a different perspective.

This blog will be speckled throughout with "what ifs", along with commentary on other more mundane aspects of the writing process including the dreaded editing process.  Just one of those necessary evils a writer must try to perfect.  Crafting a story is an amazing journey and to all of those readers who are embarking on such a journey, I wish you the best of luck and much success!
