Artichoke Hearts


"You develop a style from writing a lot."  
Kurt Vonnegut

The writer's individual style becomes the center of his or her writing.  Each person expresses an internal rhythm, a harmony of language , imagery, and perception. Everything layers around this inner heart like artichoke leaves.

Take time today to explore your writing style.  Search for your style as you contact your mysteries;  what's to laugh about or cry about.  Learn the wildness in yourself.

Spend time reading and understanding writers who appeal to your sense of flow.  Choose five authors and write out their sentences.  Experience the nuances.  They will assist you to modify and extend your unique writing style.

Become free to explore the truth inside.  What's your take on life?  Peel the layers.
