Wonderful blog! Do you have any suggestions for aspiring writers? I’m planning to start my own site soon but I’m a little lost on everything. Would you suggest starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a paid option? There are so many options out there that I’m totally overwhelmed .. Any ideas? Thank you!
Write from the heart.
Write like you talk.
Write simply – don’t flower things up.
If it can be said in brevity …. So be it.
Be vulnerable…..it is a power that draws people to your writing because most are scared to write that way.
The piece you were going to call “Wisdom lives to fight another day” is an interesting piece. The right side, with the Frontiersman and long rifle is great. The left side characters seem to be out of place.
You should consider cutting out the left side characters and either making a smaller piece or adding a dog or other person more in tune with the main character.
