Entertaining your audience...

So I went to Shriners Circus today with my family. What a great cause... I try to donate to Shriners Hospital as often as I can. :)
Anywho,
As I sat there watching the elephant acts, clowns, and trapeze artists... I realized something. The people at this event was working diligently to entertain their audience, and was doing a terrific job. 
Are we not the same... us writers... we write for the love of the story.
We hope that those people that read our work enjoy our words as much as we did when we wrote them.
In the same way that these performers hoped that their acts were as enjoyable to us as it was to them.
Then, I thought about the advertisement. How did I come across knowing these wonderful performing artists had come to Spokane, and why did I drive an hour to see such acts and pay 15 dollars to watch the two hour show?
Firstly, I was browsing through the newspaper and saw an ad. As small as it was- it caught my attention... leaving me curious as to where the circus was going to be held, the price, and what type of performances were going to be going on.
Beyond the fact that I was bored at home and was looking for something to do for the weekend. LOL
Shriners Circus sold their advertisement and as a result had me inquiring, and searching for more.
All it takes is a consistence amount of advertisement over the big web and the continuous love for what you do, and you may one day have the pleasure to entertain thousands of people with the stories you have created.
Don't give up on your dreams, because if you do, you won't be having as much fun as those circus entertainers were today. :)
I know I'm not giving up. Even if my first book doesn't get the reviews or the publicity, there is always a second, third, fourth and so on and so on.
HAVE FUN WITH YOUR HOBBIES, YOUR PASSION, YOUR DREAMS... IF YOU DON'T ITS JUST WORK. :)

THOUGHTS AND INSPIRATIONAL QUOTES...

Here I am bored at home and instead of writing my novel, I sit pondering what I should do today. Last night I watched Glee(one of my favorite shows), and this morning went for a walk. I think about how I can spend my time... read a book, buy a book, go for a drive, play the Wii, write a short story, write a little in my novel, or just work outside.
But what if you have depression, what occurs when your mind goes into a state of irritation at not wanting to do any of these following things.
I find relief in my writing, creating new idea's and worlds but still find myself lost at times and so I will begin my own uplifting sentence of the week and continue each week with a new uplifting motive. Hopefully those who read this will enjoy and maybe share your own little spirited excerpt. :) .


DO NOT FALL TO THE SORROW or AGITATION LYING WITHIN YOU, but LIVE IN THE WORLD THAT SURROUNDS YOU, FOR THE BEAUTY AND PEACE IT CAN GIVE IS WORTH A THOUSAND PIECES OF GOLD :)

DOWN FALLS

How to over come frizzy hair...
When I was in high school, I was determined to become bleach blond, resulting in plenty of trips to the salone chair where my hair was striped and bleached. Let just say my hair was dry and unmanagable.
Result- I discovered that Vitamin E, Oatmeal, Avacado, and a tsp of Olive Oil did wonders. My hair is now brown and healthy, THANK THE LORD.
As for weight...
Also throughout high school, and a little afterwards, I was overweight. I constantly attempted to lose the pounds, but was unsucessful until...
Result- I discovered that drinking a gallon of water a day, small portions and a mile walk did the trick... I think the water was the main reason I lost all my weight. :)
ADDICTION TO CHOCOLATE-
STILL FIGHTING THIS LOSING BATTLE, ANY SUGGESTIONS?

AMERICAN IDOL

I Think... Personally...
James Durbin should win...

Writers block

What is it with writers block and how do you over come it...?

IF ONLY I COULD REMEMBER :)

Last night I started picturing a new world in my mind... but before I knew it I woke up on my laptop to find out that the world I had envisioned consisted only of a dream... a dream no longer fresh in my mind. I really hate when I forget such great dreams... It could have been a great story line, if only I could recall. LOL.
