Dear Readers,
Merry Christmas! Thank you for reading The Regal Writer this past year. Hope you found inspiration and encouragement from my stories.
If you’re as busy as I’ve been these past few weeks, you probably have found it difficult to find quiet time for your writing practice. But even 15 minutes a day is better than nothing. So even amidst the holiday celebrations and work obligations, hope you can squeeze in some writing time and keep those creative juices flowing.
I’m taking a short break from The Regal Writer for the next month or so to work on several client assignments and enjoy the holidays. Look for fresh content on this blog in early 2024 as well as a new slate of writing prompts.
As a send-off, I’d like to leave you with the following gifts that can help you make the most of your writing practice, both now and well into the New Year. My gifts to you include:
The gift of time – In our hectic lives, may you always find a few minutes each day to write.
The gift of place – May you always have a quiet place to think, plan, dream and fantasize about your next story.
The gift of abundance – May your mind teem with so many creative ideas that you don’t know where to begin writing them.
The gift of imagination — May every story idea that comes from your imagination reflect a new and interesting way of looking at the world.
The gift of productivity – May you acquire the right tools when you need them to help you stay productive and consistent with your writing practice.
The gift of education – May you find the right books, courses, webinars and conferences to build your knowledge and skills about writing.
The gift of good health — Your health is important. Without good health, you cannot accomplish what you set out to do.
The gift of self-confidence – May you share your writing with calm self-assurance that this is your best effort, and may self-doubt stay away from your door.
The gift of inspiration – May your writing inspire others and bring joy and light to readers. Furthermore, may you feel inspired by your own writing so that you will want to continue with your practice.
The gift of love and friendship – May you be surrounded by people who support you and your writing, and who share your love of the written word.
Remember, writing is a gift too. The more you share that gift with others, the more joy it will bring to them and to yourself.
Be well, be kind. See you in 2024!
