I have an incentive to get back to work on my novel. I can't share what it is. I'm not telling a soul. But it's got me definitely wanting to get the words flowing onto the page once more. Wish me luck.
Blessings,

Welcome to Following the Whispers blog
Thank you so much for taking the time to visit. Hope you enjoy your stay. I blog here on Monday and Tuesday. This blog was created at the time my memoir came out, in February, 2009. Its motto was: creating a life of inner peace and self-acceptance from the depths of despair.

Karen, this is exciting! I'm so happy to hear that you are feeling inspired to write. Definitely wishing you luck...lots of it.
Glad the words are flowing!
Whatever it is, its great that its working!
Fabulous! Get those words down. :)
Go, girl, go. Writing is magical anyway, so I'm glad a mystery has tempted you. We won't mention the hard work at this stage.
Go Karen go!
Oh how I love you guys! But ahh, I said it's got me wanting to get the words flowing - they're not actually flowing yet - but I am sure they will - as soon as my life calms down a bit

Great news, Karen! I'm working on a novel too -- it came as a surprise and demands to be written. Looks like we both are meant to go with the flow! Let me know if you want to meet at OSVC for writing sessions.
Sometimes if you speak in detail about the magical thing that keeps you going, it loses its magic. Good luck!!!
LUCK!
You are made to this, Karen.
Nancy, we should definitely get together. It's been way too long.
Tonja, you are so right!
Suze, hmmm guess I have to tell those nasty old voices that tell me I can't do it what you said.

I DO wish you luck, Karen! I too am back to working on the memoir I started 3 years ago ghost writing for my friend. And I just put up a blog post about being halfway back with social media. I do want to keep in touch with dear friends such as you!
Yes. Sometimes it works much better not to tell a soul what our ideas for writing are. I've learned this from experience. Best just to do it...
LUCK!!!! :)
Ann, so good to see you back here - you have been missed!
Thanks, DL
You know, writing blogposts is much like writing personal essays, you start with an idea and are not sure where it will take you. I finally realized my resistance to beginning work on the novel is that this next part is going to take me to a very dark place in order to write it. I don't want to go there. Voila!

Oh, YAY! Fantastic, Karen. I'll share my raspberry trifle with you. :)
Here's wishing you lots of luck and success. I've got something brewing as well. I'll also have an announcement on Tossing It Out on Monday that I hope some will find interesting.

I always love hearing a writer is actually writing. It sounds like the writing bug is in the air. Good Luck!
