1. Frank McKinley, at the Positive
Writer, talks about why writing in isolation is good for you. My own
experience mirrored his. I get too distracted if the Internet, email, music, or
other things are vying for my attention. Check it out. You may find a tip that
makes your writing life more productive.
2. Platform is one of those words writers love
to hate. Publishers demand Social Media numbers most of us can only dream
about. Lisa
Hall-Wilson addresses how to build a platform on Facebook. She has a unique
way of approaching the subject that I found helpful.
3. Christian Astrophysicist
offers a brilliant reply to Richard Dawkins criticism of intelligent design.
See the article on Faithwire.
Home school people - you might find this valuable for your curriculum.
4. Rhonda Rhea's devotional on The
Write Conversation tells us about "Scratching Where It Itches."
I'm sure that captured your attention. LOL! She uses humor to talk about a
serious subject.
5. You may recall that I've started a modest
succulent collection. I'm not a great photographer, but the photo at the top of
this post shows that I haven't killed any of them yet! My Jade plant is growing
so fast that it will need a bigger pot soon.
Can anyone identify the plants in the pictures below? I know one of them is an Echevieria (Sp?). There are so many varieties that I'm having a hard time locating their names. The one in front is so pretty with green leaves tipped in red.
Writers: Please share some of your platform-building
hacks.
Readers: Are you a gardener/houseplant lover? What was
your favorite project this summer?
