There is no greater agony than
bearing an untold story inside you.
~Maya Angelou
For this I am grateful.
1. Freedom of Speech
I am grateful to live in a country where we can write and share our words without fear. These are the top ten countries that censor words and imprison or harass writers.
2. Time
I am grateful to honor what I do by carving out space to work on my craft. Here are tips to help find your time.
3. Writing Community
I am grateful for the writers and authors that I've met on line and face to face that join me on this journey. Check out 12 x 12, NF 4 NF, RhyPiBoMo, ReFoReMo, and PiBoIdMo, to name a few.
4. Books
I am grateful for mentor texts and books that catch my fancy, books on craft and books of interest and inspiration (for this week).

5. Tools
I am grateful for the amazing technology that enables us to snap a picture, record a sound, and share our work.
(Learned how to take slides from power point, make an imovie, add music and upload to YouTube to put in a blog post--this week.) I also love pen and paper to start a project.
Share what you are grateful for as a writer.
