Didn't think my quirky computer would let me post this month, but just at the last minute it decided to come back to life. I think it's playing around with me....
The Insecure Writer's Support Group
Join us on the first Wednesday of each month in Alex J. Cavanaugh's Insecure Writer's Support Group--a forum of writers who gather to talk about writing and the writer's life. For a complete list of participants visit Alex's Blog.
The co-hosts for the August 4 posting of the IWSG are PK Hrezo, Cathrina Constantine, PJ Colando, Kim Lajevardi, and Sandra Cox!
August 4 question - What is your favorite writing craft book? Think of a book that every time you read it you learn something or you are inspired to write or try the new technique. And why?
I have so many good writing craft books that I've read and probably more that I haven't. It's been years since I read a writing book and that was Ray Bradbury's Zen in the Art of Writing. I seem to recall enjoying it, but now that I've got this one on my mind I'm going to add it to the books I'll be taking with me on our upcoming summer cross country road trip.
Yes, I'm going to take a chance on travel in these times of COVID stupidity. I hope the rest of the country has more sense about it than my state of California. I'm looking forward to getting out of L.A. and retreating to something simpler and more peaceful in East Tennessee.
I can see me now sitting beside the Little River in the Smokey Mountains reading that Ray Bradbury book again. Maybe I'll learn something new or inspiring. Maybe I'll even start writing again. Mostly though I want to enjoy being with my family.
Hope you are having a wonderful summer. Stay safe. Stay well, Stay sane. And avoid the nonsense.
