Whole-heart-ed-ly

As this Valentines Day winds down, it's a good time to remember that as writers we always lead with our hearts.

It's our emotions that drive us to new heights, not the gray matter that allows us to form words and the connections necessary to tell a story. That is one reason why rules of any kind fail to thrive in most of our lives.

If you truly listen to supposed experts, it reaches only the brain. Figuring out what makes you happy enough to contemplate writing day in and day out, or even once a month, is at the heart of all good writing practices.
