Writers Horoscope for October 30: Today you maintain momentum.

Yesterday’s trademark was relentlessness.
That was yesterday.
Day 2 of a turnaround is often pivotal.
How to keep going?
A few tips:
—Tell the voices of doubt to put a sock in it.
—Generate and keep nearby (digitally or on your person) a list of ‘live’ topics that beg you to engage.
—Carry a notebook. Leonardo da Vinci kept one, so you’ll be in fairly notable company.
—How about mastering dictation on your device? Leonardo would have gone nuts with voice input.

Buddying up is always a good strategy to keep your momentum.

Writers Horoscope for October 29: Today, you ‘rock’ your relentlessness.

Oh sure, you run the risk of rocking a little too far…

But think of that brief thrill of the climb, and even the sudden descent.

There are lessons in both.

Writers Horoscope for October 28: Today, you’re still haunted.

Hangup for the day: “Who wants to read about my life?

Think small. Think moments.

Find your ‘spin’, your slant–in your voice.

And go!

If these moments resonated with you, they will hit home with others.

Writers Horoscope for October 27: You’re not immune to writer’s hangups.

Today’s fixation: “It’s already been written.”

Yes, the same subject has been covered.

But how can you know book/post/ won’t reflect your own perspective if you haven’t actually written the piece?

Until you commit to the project, you can’t predict what direction, emphasis, or format you might explore.

So, yes, it’s ‘first draft’ time.

Ready, go!

 

Writers Horoscope for October 26: Intuition wins out.

Bravo. You actually followed your gut. [No, not to the fridge–well, not immediately.]

Instead, you raided your bookshelf.

You put down your pen and put up your feet.

It was time for a cozy dog mystery, a creativity daily devotional, and Charlotte’s Web.

You read for yourself.

You recaptured your inspiration and relished in the wordplay, the plot twists, and the comforting conclusions.

There is something to be said about not writing…

Let’s start with this one: Why, when you get some momentum in one endeavor, do you delve into something entirely new?

There certainly is the freshness factor–the exhilaration of trying something new.

But there may be the ‘Finishing the last project means I’m that much closer to rejection’ factor.

Yikes.

Solve that mystery first…then you can set up your fictional detective agency.
