There is nothing like having the support of psychic insight when you are working on a book or, for that matter, any writing project.

My Ph.D. is in English. I have literally written my entire life and, from the moment I could write, I wrote and a lot. Writing is a way to connect with the divine, to receive information that otherwise would remain hidden.

When people are called to write, they generally have something very unique to offer. I would like to support that effort. The world benefits in gigantic ways by the introduction of new consciousness on the planet. This is very important for us as a species, one of the ways in which we evolve. I live in support of that evolution.

In Psychic Writing Consulting & Coaching I combine my training and experience in writing with my psychic reading abilities to help you with all practical aspects of writing as well as all spiritual and emotional aspects of the writing . . . more

O.K., I will admit I am enamored with words.

It all started in freshman year in college in a philosophy class.  I had an extraordinary teacher--Donald Watts, a Yale graduate and one of those rare college professors that you remember for the rest of your life.

On one of those days when the entire class seemed to be slugging along with zero enthusiasm for studying, the lecture became about the true spirit of learning.  In that mini lecture Professor Watts reminisced about his own college days when, he said, he assiduously learned new words.  The light went on, and pronto, I was in the bookstore searching out vocabulary-building books.

What an adventure!  I quickly discovered that I didn't just learn the words and forgot about them, instead, I applied them immediately.  But, really, it was so much more than that, and why I am writing about it here.

Words became a means to awareness.  By having a word, I could identify thoughts I didn't even know I had until I found the word to identify them and to capture them.  Words expanded my awareness, expanded my consciousness.

With new words, I consistently entered new territories of consciousnesses.  It's like being in a forest, and consistently creating more and more clearing so as to be able to perceive and to see.

Yup, these days, the study of new words continues.  It goes without saying that it helps with writing, and certainly helps hugely in giving psychic readings.  The more specificity I have in identifying energy, the more accurate the reading, and the more helpful it is to my clients.

So, recently I found a great new dictionary--as you can see to your right.  It comes with white pages--easy to see.  The words are in blue, the definitions in black, which makes it so much easier to read, not to mention just a simple pleasurable experience of aesthetics.

I highly recommend the whole thing :-)

I am so excited . . . found a mystery writer who was born in China, but lives in the US.  He writes about police work in China.  It is absolutely fascinating to have a close look at the Chinese culture.

The book I've just read is A Case of Two Cities.  I'm going to look into Xiaolong's other books.

Really enjoyable!

I love this book for many reasons, one of them that it's not wordy.  It gets right to the point and tells you everything you need to do to promote your book.

It's full of fantastic ideas and numerous resources.

Patricia Fry also offers consulting to folks writing books. 

Terrific!

I used to think folks who sought out writing software before they could write were engaged in one of the many evasion techniques, and I think this may be true in some cases, the anxiety about writing being so high.  But I've been struggling with finding an easy way to handle the numerous aspects of writing a science fiction novel, and finally, once again, started looking for software that would fulfill all of my needs.

Story-boarding was hugely important to me.  Being able to see all aspects of the novel development at once . . . access character, setting, chapters . . . instantly and move between them easily.  And of course output the separate chapters into one document.  These are a few important features I needed.

Finally discovered WriteItNow by Ravenshead Services.  I can't believe how perfect it is, at least for my needs and how I work.  It provides the ideal writing environment for fiction and in my opinion also for non-fiction.  I highly recommend it.
