More goodwill words…

I try to do something different with each letter and note that I write. In this case, I created a word cloud for the recipient, similar to the image you see below.

It’s important that I keep things fresh. If my goodwill writing ever felt like drudgery, I’d be missing the point completely, right? And hey, a ‘mojo machine’? Why not?

More goodwill words…and 7 ways to support others

Still more to add.

Just trying to keep the momentum.

Posting these helps make the project more ‘real’.

Just came across another writing-to-help-others site:

And in the meantime, here is a nice piece entitled: 7 WAYS TO SUPPORT OTHERS DURING TOUGH TIMES

Curation Corner: Let Hemingway do the work.

Click here or on the above word cloud for a 90-second run-through of The Hemingway App, an online pair of eyes [creepy, I know] that points out [without browbeating] a writing flaw or two.

Here is an opening sentence I used on another blog…and Hemingway’s feedback. [That hack…I’ve heard he claims to have written The Sun Also Rises and A Farewell to Arms.]

You just paste in your masterpiece and out comes the quick but helpful evaluation.

There is also a $20 desktop version.

Note: Thanks to websiteplanet.com for reminding me about The Hemingway App and a few other helpful tools.

Hope it helps. It should…

Curation Corner: Following up on Writers, Ink

As I was curating for my previous post on podcasts for writers, I ran across Writers, Ink, a team effort of J.D. Barker, J. Thorn, and Zach Bohannon.

When I clicked over to their website, I signed up for the free revision course (see above).

Am hoping it will A. offer some helpful strategies B. nudge me to open some work that needs my attention [i.e. is collecting digital dust].

Hope this help, writers.
