Confessions of a Dirty Blonde :: Forever is a good word

When I’m sitting in front of my laptop and the words won’t come, I try to remember the things my writing coach told me. Funny how we strangle our minds enough that the helpful bits get lost in the chaos of our fear and frustration. When I was in Write Raw – a rookie in […]
