You've written your masterpiece, had your say, put in your two cents...now what? Ah, editing. So, why shouldn't you edit your work yourself? Some writers do. But it's also a matter of literary fact that one can be 'too close' to one’s own work to be able to edit properly, because you 'see' what should be there, not what really is there. That's why another set of eyes is crucial to putting the fine edge on your work that allows it to step out from mere writing to a fabulous piece of art.

Happy Holidays!!!!!

To all of my dear friends and family, may you enjoy a lovely, safe, joyous season of much laughter and love. Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, Happy Hanukkah, Blessed Be, Happy Yuletide, etc, you get the picture. May you all practice random acts of beauty and senseless acts of kindness. Coexist, tolerance. Let there be peace on Earth and goodwill to all. Love you!

Defining Myself

Sylvanwords

Well, let's see. The word 'sylvan' means someone who dwells in a forest or wood, or the forest itself. Since I'm a tree-hugger, that is very apt indeed. But sylvan also implies someone who speaks, or writes, with great eloquence. And 'words' sounds quite obvious...until you think about it. Words define our thoughts, words come from our mouths and don't come back, and words make or break a person in first impressions. Now that's power, my friends! Words therefore are thoughts, either blades or hugs, and your image. Wow! What amazingly varied things words are! So we have this lovely image of woods and words, or...eloquent words. Which is what we, as writers, are all about!
