Still, I'm always hopeful and getting into the groove with what stories to submit.<br />I've spent this rainy afternoon sifting through stories and reading and editing.<br />Good luck with your entries.<br />Blessings, BarbB.

What a great description and very true. I do enjoy writing outside my genre. I have a difficult time though, making my stories come alive, if they do not resonate from my own experience or the truth inside myself. But I have been surprised many times, when I stretch a bit, I find there is more to what I know and feel than I give myself credit for. Trying new things has helped me grow in surprising ways. I hope you have a wonderful day!

I enjoy writing outside of my genre, I think it really helps develop our writing craft. We gain a different perspective with our words. Though I'd classify my work as women's fiction, I do have a completed memoir manuscript, too.Joannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03972054718663959694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3635163323560816578.post-49658253933243767402011-03-09T08:31:57.928-05:002011-03-09T08:31:57.928-05:00Yep, that's the way March is..
