CWC Retreat

I am having more trouble writing this blog than I can remember ever having with a post. What is it? Is it that there were 25 of us in attendance and I don’t want to self-consciously gush? Don’t know.  Anyway, I am fortunate to have been there.  Maybe the trouble I’m having is that I am seeing another world of writers, a community of people sharing and helping. Instead of the old idea of a writer holed up in solitude, intent on expressing individuality, I see people who love all of  what writing is about, including other writers. This distinctive quality is obvious throughout the California Writers Club. It’s a simple example of how large the world really is.

About jane

I heard something today that woke me up a little. FEAR stands for face everything and recover. Be honest, about everything. For way too long I have used the label of the work I do 9 to 5 to give the impression of a successful person. Since I would rather be writing, having fun making things up, giving the impression that I am an upstanding business person to impress people is a lie. True, I enjoy making a living and will keep this or some other profession to do so. I won't forget that job is to support the work and play I really love.
