I’m continuing with 31 questions from a “Writer’s Whole
Life Perspective”.
4.
What special, memory building moment did you have with
family, friends, writing groups, by yourself and so on?
I treasure the comments I’ve received on my posts during
this month. In reviewing my posts for a recognizable pattern, I read through
the thoughtful comments other slicers made. The thread seemed to be those posts
written from the heart, when I wrote about a special relative or memory. I
suppose that is why writers are encouraged to write what they know or what they
are passionate about. Views from the heart allow others a glimpse into that individual’s
world. And people recognize similar feelings or situations in their own lives. I’ve
recognized some of my life incidences and felt the emotional connection with
the writing of other slicers. That is when a memory building connection is
created.
I agree a 100%...I want my last three to be about them. Thanks for the reminder. xo

Thank you for the nice comments.
DeleteComments are fuel, inspiring us to continue writing. They are little nuggets of specialness given. Enjoy some bliss.
ReplyDeleteYour words provide a great visual. Thank you.
DeleteSo so true Pat! We sometimes do put our heart on our sleeves in slices and never ever felt anything but support. Wonderful slice!
ReplyDeleteThank you from my heart!
DeleteVoice only comes through when you write from the heart and the heart is what you know. I love what MaryHelen said in her comment. So true!
ReplyDeleteI've enjoyed your comments through out this challenge, thank you.
DeleteWe are a writing group. I hadn't thought of us as that. We are sharing many personal, life moments and the comments are affirming that we aren't alone. D :)
ReplyDeleteYes, that is so true. A writer can't have any better compliment.
DeleteComments are so powerful. They encourage and support. They make us thing but most of all they help us connect.
ReplyDeleteYes, it is true, we connect and feel empathy with one another.
DeleteGood suggestion.... I will review the comments I received to see what worked especially well. I don't know if I would have made it through my first SOL writing challenge without the supportive feedback. I will remember this lesson in future endeavors...people want to hear what you think about their heartfelt sharing.

Thank you. It's important to know others are supportive.
DeleteI agree that the heartfelt posts are the best. The ones where I can feel your pain or joy or laughter. I've always been told "Write what you know" and I've tried to do nothing but that.
ReplyDeleteGreat reminder!
Thank you!
DeleteOur heart stories are what we know best. The power of comments makes me speechless. This community is what keeps me writing.
ReplyDeleteYou said it so well! I agree.
