Sometimes in my rush I forget to click "publish"<br /><br />I agree with Dinty Moore. I have found the more I know about a subject, the easier it is to talk about it. I found it to be true in public speaking especially. I also found that I grow when I get out of my comfort zone otherwise I stay the same and get stale. It not only applies to writing but to all facets of life.<br /><br />Can yo believe that we are having blizzard condition announced for Sunday!!<br />JB<br /><br />Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03423754263165266554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19517251.post-30368980447028486222015-03-14T19:31:00.557-05:002015-03-14T19:31:00.557-05:00It is wonderful when we learn something new becaus...It is wonderful when we learn something new because we feel so accomplished.

My mama could make up names for stuff she made. One thing I loved she called Loblolly, it was sort of a gravy fat flour and water salt and pepper. I loved it.<br /><br />It is always good to get a hint of generating good ideas. There alway seems to be that need every few days....jack69https://www.blogger.com/profile/12884137603402812926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19517251.post-9777965135116375672015-03-14T12:01:08.491-05:002015-03-14T12:01:08.491-05:00Add me to your group.

Being descriptive is something I need to work at! I guess that is why having a teacher or proof reading would help so much. But I am also living my dream, by inspiring women to enjoy being homemakers and wives and mothers!<br />I appreciate you... And yes- you are a funny guy at times<br />Enjoy...Roxyliving from glory to gloryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07123718369605106023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19517251.post-86825663663705212772015-03-14T03:37:29.142-05:002015-03-14T03:37:29.142-05:00For a very long time, at least since Seneca --thru...For a very long time, at least since Seneca --thru Joan Didion, Richard Rodriguez-- the personal essay has been among the most vibrant of literary forms. Your post about Dinty Moore (the writer, not the canned stew --couldn't resist, sorry) suggests some excellent advice in contributing to this lively genre. Especially in this new electronic age, I've seen an interest in essays of all sorts --and even poetry-- that was lacking in the 20th century. I frankly welcome the renewed public enthusiasm in these areas of measured contemplation and self-expression.Geo.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16221314320558128986noreply@blogger.com
