Remember why you started so you have reason to finish.

There’s 3 things to remember, and they all involve focus:
1.) Preparing. The biggest question is, “What is it that I want to do? How will I do it?”
2.) Expecting. Be gentle with yourself. Set reasonable deadlines and keep them. Adjust them if necessary.
3.) Follow through. What you set out to do complete. It is now a priority.
With Love & Ink,

With all you have, write it down.
You deserve to have your voice be heard.
Sometimes the best way to hear it is to write it down.
With Love & Ink,

I am a writer.
I am a storyteller, poet, essayist and one who uses art to speak truth to power.
I am a teacher. An encourager.
I am a support and a push.
I do my work, as Baldwin said, so when I am needed, I’ll be there.
I am here to entertain, encourage, impart and remind.
My hope for this series was to bring light and support to all of you. My hope is something would be said (or written) to encourage you all not to quit.
If no one told you over this 30 days that they were proud of you, I am proud of you.
Keep going.

Writing is a process that is demanding, constructive, which requires love and focus.
Yet, for the want of telling our stories, you must commit to saying what needs to be said.
Sometimes, it is you whom can tell the story.
It has to be you.
-JBHarris
When the work gets hard, detours are a writer’s best friend.
They allow you to regroup, to withstand, and to rest even!
This is why it is important to stretch your talent—figure out what all you can do with this gift.
Poets are novelists too.
Spoken work artists can write comic books.
Essayists can do short stories.
Detours can be lifesavers.
-JBHarris
The power of writing is how it resonates with other people.
It may cause your readers to remember, to forget, laugh and to do better.
Write anyway.
Tell the story anyway.
-JBHarris
The criticism from the outside is enough.
Don’t be your worst (and first) critic.
-JBHarris
For certain topics or subject matter, be aware of the sensitivity needed to proceed.
Be aware of just what may be required to start (or finish) a work.
Balance your the skill between your head and heart.
