I surf many websites..seeking advise and seeking ideas from many sources.Sometimes, a quote or some kind of saying..hits home..or gets my creative juices moving..Here's a quote with no author behind it, I found on lablaugh.com..
The only way...
The only way you truly fail is to stop trying altogether.

I want to be a writer...but I get writer's block and stress..kills my creative sense..so I seek....Thank you

I am hoping it will signal the re-birth of local independent bookstores... course that could just be to feed my fantasy of owning one...

Hi plainsue,
I have been a freelance writer for many years and only wrote articles. Shortly after the death of my identical twin sister I started writing poems. I subscribe to several writers publications and they all state how important it is to have an online portfolio, blog or website. Well, I joined Writing.com on January 18 and have mainly posted poems. Yesterday I finally started a blog. I have a lot to learn about blogging! Anyway I hope that all this will help my career on the international scene. I am from Jamaica. I think trying a blog and journaling will help your creativity. Take care and all the very best.

Yeah...boredom can be soooooo annoying, yet it can also help you notice more things. Like when I was bored in my room, I stared at an old photo of mine. Then I noticed that there was a little girl in the backround. Same with writing, all of your experiences that you can remmember come to be one and gets you thinking. For instance, you're day at a beach will trigger an impulse of writing about water creatures. And mystery can also be in there. Even being bored can benifit you. When you've thought of a story, poem, ect. after many thoughts in quiet, you may think of something even greater than the oringinal. It's amazing, well I believe so. ^_^

Boredom can be a killer to the muse. I try to read, watch or do something original, out of my ordinary choices when I'm bored. It can help spur the creativity....

I've wandered away from magazines lately, but I still love bookstores. One of my favorite places is a hole in the wall second hand bookstore I stumbled across one day while trying to kill time before a dentist appointment. A lot of people think second hand bookstores are bad, but to me they're a treasure - kind of like a hidden gem.

You're so right about Second Life being a great place for writers. I've been active in SL for nearly a year and because I found so many possibilities for writers, started a blog about writing opportunities and resources there -- http://www.writersinthevirtualsky.com -- which has a lot of suggestions for things to do, and more coming. It's a fun, inspiring place to be and full of fellow writers.

It is a bit addicting isn't it?

I have the most fun here than any other site. I know what you mean about the creativity. People write things in here I'd NEVER think of and I wish I had.

Once a weekend is over, a new week starts. Possibilities start all over again. Sometimes, loneliness goes away. Ideas flood in. Feelings get less blue. Just being busy all over again, helps! Thank you for the question, sorry I responded so late.

Gave my sister Kris a present for taking care of my pet parakeet while in Cape Cod. The book Have A Little Faith by Mitch Albom. Good book. It is
putting me back into my religion, so to speak. Good read. Interesting about Rabbi and Minister..funny thing..even about Detroit. As you can tell, I got two of those books..one for me and my sister. I am gonna loan mine out. Good reads are worth passing on. Happy trails and writing..plainsue
