Ho ho ho! It's time to write to Santa.
What do we writers really want?
Instead of asking for the newest gadgets under our tree, what if we request inspiration for our writing?
What if we ask Santa to bring us patience, or confidence, or other qualities that help us begin and finish the best story we can write?
This year, I'm asking for:
- Belief in myself when I lose faith in my story.
- Perseverance when I'm writing yet another draft.
- Humility to ask for help from a teacher or another writer when I need it.
- Curiosity to keep looking for great story ideas.
- Genius--just kidding, but wouldn't it be nice?
How about you? What qualities would you like to find under your tree?
