		<description><![CDATA[It is always best for writers to write about what they are passionate about. If something really matters to you, you should write about that because you will have the most likelihood to have the manuscript written. Otherwise, writers who don't have a passion about what they are writing have a tendency to let such ariticles, blogs, or manuscripts fall by the wayside before completing them.

		<description><![CDATA[Every year around this time, I start thinking about my goals and priorities for 2010 in all parts of my life. Since this blog is devoted mostly to writing, I will share my writing goals for 2010 below. Before I do that though I want to focus on why it is important to set goals and to express and share what these are to someone else and not just keep them to yourself.

For a long time, psychologists have said that the practise of writing down your goals on paper and having them visible so that you could refer to them often can really help you to accomplish them. Apparently, this visual representation of your goals helps remind you that these are things that you said that you would accomplish.

		<description><![CDATA[For many the New Year is a time when people “reconnect” with themselves: spiritually, mentally, or physically. They overlook one valuable place. Often, if they multi-task they forget that they also need to renew themselves in one critical area, in this case their work, especially in the case of writers. For many writers, there is no such thing as a holiday or time off. Writers can be critical of taking such time since often it is the only type of way to make or keep money. A time of renewal, however is vital. The New Year is the perfect time in which to renew.

		<description><![CDATA[There are two kinds of writing patterns that all writers engage in. Patterns that work and patterns that don't work. Writers seem to develop patterns without thinking and some of these patterns are less than productive for us, especially over time. Developing writing patterns is usually helpful. Writing patterns can help save time and to become more efficient. But not in all cases.

		<description><![CDATA[It is important to realize the fundamental and vital role that books play in our lives. Books are vehicles for education, connection, and entertainment. Books serve many purposes both for those who write them and those who read them. The wisdom, knowledge, experience, history, and imperative information imparted through the reading of books enriches us and connects us as it weaves, within our over-all experience in life, a tapestry of what the journey of humanity entails and encompasses.

		<description><![CDATA[Can writers hold back time? Can writers bring a time long since passed from life? A simplistic answer is a resounding yes, but this answer lacks some power, as there are many non-fiction writers who do not write with an ease that makes a reader long to continue reading their work. Some are more popular now, however their time is fleeting, and others who were never popular in their own lifetimes, yet they are considered masters of a craft that is unforgiving at best.

		<description><![CDATA[In order to develop a healthy and enjoyable writing life, we must all learn to curb our habit of negative self-talk before, during and after our writing sessions. Negative self-talk is all of those negative things that we tell ourselves over and over. Negative self-talk can create a lack of confidence and lead to procrastination, or even writer's block.

		<description><![CDATA[I was reminded of how writing requires discipline by one of my writing friends who called me the other day and was complaining that she hasn't written anything for weeks because she was too busy to simply sit down and write. She was the inspiration for this blog because I think that so many writers are in this boat. We feel pressured to do so many different things in a day, but usually writing isn't one of them. And that is okay unless you consider yourself to be a writer.
