Think of each breath. In any given moment, as long as we are living, we are in the state of either exhaling or inhaling; natural breathing occurs without any sticks, stitches or catches. Now think for a moment about the point of motion in between the two phases of breath, the point after you are done inhaling and begin to exhale, or the point when you are finished exhaling and begin to inhale. Imagine that the breath itself were visible, and that you could see how it swirls as it is brought into the lungs. Do you see how that activity never ceases?

When you write fiction, description matters. A lot. Too much, and your readers will put the book down in boredom. Too little, and they'll walk away wondering what they missed. Use the wrong words and phrases, and they'll toss the book aside because you haven't matched your tone to your genre. So how do you come up with just the right amount of appropriate description for your fiction? It's a balancing act. Let's start with how much. Depending on the tone of your story or novel, you may need more or less description.

Suspense is what keeps the reader interested in your story. It is what keeps her going. She wants to find out what is going to happen next, and she is thoroughly interested in how it is all going to end. So, what can you do to build up this interest and keep it burning? There are quite a number of ways. Often the best way of doing it is by promising excitement. This involves hinting at certain outcomes. You do it in such a way that the reader looks forward to these outcomes. In addition to promising something, you must leave room for uncertainty.

As writers, we tend to think about writing and what it takes to write a book. But what about reading a book? Although it doesn't take near as long as the writing part, it still takes a while. When you ask someone to read your book, you're asking them to set aside other things they could be doing--reading something else, hanging out with their kids, or whatever--and spend ten or so hours with you and your thoughts. That's a pretty serious request. And as a writer, you have to keep in mind the fact that if you don't take your writing and your book seriously, no one else will either.

It's basically a product development/marketing exercise to get you thinking differently about your products and programs flow. Long story short, the article recommends that you start with your big dream package, the $50,000 kahuna that people would be willing to pay you... and you have to figure out what you would offer at that price. Then, you work down from there.

There are many reasons we procrastinate or simply don't do something we say we want to do. Something that will forward our goals. Something that moves us toward our dreams. Something that is EXACTLY what we want to do. But we don't do it. Why? It's being stuck, and it's not just a lack of inspiration, although we may use that as an excuse. It's almost always because of fear. And because of that fear, we keep ourselves stuck.

"An object in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by an outside force. An object at rest will stay at rest unless acted upon by an outside force." You know how it works... if it's up to you get something done - and no one is relying on it - you procrastinate, procrastinate, procrastinate... And it doesn't get done. But the second that you're responsible to someone else and someone is depending upon you to get it done, man, you've never seen yourself be so productive.

Whatever we're writing, fiction or nonfiction, blogging or articles, sales letters or emails, we often find ourselves needing to convey an abstract concept. For example, in a marketing email, you are supposed to tap into your audience's pain. Whatever your audience's pain point, it's probably somewhat of an abstract concept. Stress. Want. Exhaustion. Fear. Need. The better job you do of conveying that pain point, the more likely you are to connect with your audience.

Grab 'em at the beginning and don't let 'em go. Powerful beginnings - whether we're talking about short stories or sales pages - are crucial to capturing your reader's attention. If you don't grab her right away, she has no reason to keep reading. And you've lost her. Conversely, if you've kept her attention from the very beginning but you leave her wanting or, worse, confused at the end, then that's just as bad. Let's start with beginnings and introductions. (We'll cover endings in Part II.)

Last week, I hosted the Writing Hour where I talked to writers at all various stages of the writing and publishing process. One writer was frustrated with her progress (or lack of progress as it were) in her fiction story. She felt she'd been spending too much time on the character development and not enough time on the plot. "It's like I don't know how to do beginning, middle, and end." As we talked further, we discovered that her time spent on character development hadn't been wasted. "Are you happier with who the characters are now as opposed to when you first started?"

A common marketing statistic bandied about is that it takes 7-10 touches to get people's attention. Hence, why on radio stations, you'll hear the same commercials over and over - because advertisers know they can't just play the commercial once and expect people to buy their widget. I've also seen reports where people have tracked their selling statistics, and they find they have much more follow-through after 14 touches. What that means is that you have to put yourself in front of people - consistently and persistently. You need to get your message out there - often.

You have a product or service that solves a problem and that people need, and you want to share that. But then it comes down to communicating with your target market... that's where you get stuck. You have to write blog posts, ezine articles, sales pages, campaign emails, affiliate materials... the list goes on. You have trouble taking that concept of your valuable product or service and confidently and powerfully communicating it. You feel like you are not connecting with your market. (And you're not.)

A Real Writer sits down at his beautiful desk, and magic flies from his fingers. Beautiful words appear on the page or the screen, with very little effort from him. And then WE sit down to write, hoping for the same magic to flow - to somehow make instant sense of the concept in our brains and convert that concept into perfect words. And it rarely, if ever, happens that way. But we think it should, and so we criticize ourselves before, during, and after our writing. "This stinks." "Why did I even think I could write this?" "Who is going to want to read this?"

Much of what I do for my clients is to create sacred space. When I'm leading a workshop, I'm creating sacred space for my clients and students to write and create. When I coach, the coaching session is a sacred space where my clients feel safe to share, to stretch, to take risks, and to uncover blocks to their creativity and content. I've realized recently that sacred space is one of my core values, along with connection and authenticity. I not only create sacred space for others, but it's crucial for me to do all that I do. And I suspect it's important to you, too.

In conversations or in words, we usually know what it is we're trying to say. We have the concept in our heads. We can see it. Then, the trick is to translate that concept (which is not word-based) into words. Just like in a conversation with your spouse, you don't mention every single stream-of-consciousness detail (unless it's important). "When we were driving on I-695, this truck almost ran us off the road. Oh, and the sky was blue." Part of our job as writers is to understand what's important and what's not. The "sky was blue" is NOT important, by the way.

Much of the work I do with writers, especially authors, is to help them understand that writing is a process. You don't just sit down and start writing Chapter 1, finish that chapter, and seamlessly move onto the next one. Before you can get to that place where you're writing full sentences, you need to know what you're writing about. You need to gather fodder, play with ideas, go down a few paths. Once you've gathered the fruit of your creative labors, then you can start forming that fruit into a more coherent message.

It happens... you set aside time to write and create. Or a client cancels at the last minute. Or that rare thing of a block of time drops into your lap. You're even all set with what you're going to work on. And you stare at the computer. You frown at your list. You shuffle papers on your desk. You look at your plan. You do nothing. And it's so frustrating!!! Especially if it's the case where you got the very rare gift of extra time. You DREAM about having a block of time to create and write. And then you get it, and you can't seem to even press a key on the keyboard.

You want to appeal to your audience and deliver your message in a way that rouses them to action, or makes them think, or laugh, or cry; you want to make an impact. That's where style and voice come in. Style covers things like word choice, the types of sentences you write, how you introduce a piece, how you conclude it, and how you show your meaning (if you don't know it already, memorize and make your own the mantra of "show; don't tell"). Voice is that element that's intangible, yet so crucial for effect. Voice in writing is what makes it yours and no one else's.

What exactly is writing well? Is it writing with perfect grammar? Not necessarily. Is it writing that's worthy of The New York Times bestseller list? Maybe, but I'm not sure how practical that is. Could it be as simple as writing so that your readers understand the meaning you're trying to convey? Yep, I'm pretty sure that's it. So how do you make sure your readers understand you?

At some point in your career as an employee or a business owner, you're required to write something. Whether it be the endless stream of e-mails that come into and out of your computer, the proposal, or the occasional, old-fashioned letter, your words need to convey the meaning you intend. You become your words; make sure it's the you that you want people to see. Here's what you can do to make your words count: 1. Read. If you're writing proposals, study those done by the experts. If you're crafting marketing materials, scrutinize the award winners. What can you learn?

As I work with people at different stages of the writing process, I find that they're often surprised that there IS a writing process. Most often, we imagine how a "real" writer works. He sits down at his lovely, mahogany desk and gets out his pad of paper or his antiquated typewriter. He flexes his fingers, and grabs his favorite fountain pen or starts typing on the keys. Suddenly, words, sentences, paragraphs, chapters fly onto the paper.

I was working with a client in a book writing program, and she was having a hard time figuring out what she wanted to write about. However, one theme that kept popping up for her was that she was passionate about people's stories being told. "There are all these stories out there, and they just need to be told!" she'd say over and over. It was pretty obvious to me that telling other people's stories was what she needed to write. At first, she didn't agree. "That's not good enough. It needs to be bigger."

You need a great beginning in order to grab your readers' attention, but if you don't end just as powerfully, your reader could walk away with a bad taste in her mouth, your content forgotten. You can take a so-so piece of writing and make it powerful with a good conclusion. If you start with a great piece and don't conclude it well, it's not a great piece overall. In another article, I demonstrated several different models to begin your writing, whether fiction or nonfiction. Now I'm going to do the same with endings.

Writing is sacred, or at least, the power of words is sacred. We need to respect the word, the writing, and the process. While I believe there are no real rules to writing, here are 16 rules I use in my own writing life as well as with my clients and students. Feel free to break any as necessary, as long as you're always respecting the creative process. 1. Prepare your environment. Maybe you can write everywhere, or maybe you need to go somewhere different. Alte atively, make an environment as conducive to writing as possible.

There's this old writing saying that if your character is going to open the door, then you, the writer, need to be able to see the doorknob. It doesn't mean that the readers need to see the doorknob; just that the writer has to be very clear on what's going on in his story.

Communication. When you talk with people on the phone, there's tone, pitch, speed, and volume to convey meaning. When you talk with people face to face, add in body language, eye contact, and gestures. Just your words, though, account for only 7% of the meaning you're trying to convey. That other 93% comes from the visual and vocal communication cues you use. What this means is that most of the time you rely on these strong visual and vocal muscles to get your meaning across. And, if you're not doing a good job of that, you usually get immediate feedback from your listener.

Your message – your brand, if you will – is crucial to your business. This message encapsulates who you are, what you do, and who you do it for… along with housing your uniqueness. Everything follows from that core statement. This message is woven through your elevator speech, your website copy, the topics you speak on, your social media updates. Here’s the thing: if you can’t speak concisely, powerfully, and clearly about who you are and what you do, people won’t know what you do!

If you work virtually or market your business online at all, your website is a crucial part of your business. It’s one of the first things online people will see about you. Even offline people might go “check you out” after they’ve met you in person. Recently, most of my coaching calls and Content Strategy Consultations have centered around websites. These are people who already have websites, and their websites either need a tune-up or to be maximized.

According to an article in Forbes in 2013, there were almost 28 million small businesses in the United States, and over 22 million of those were self-employed with no additional payroll or employees. Over 50% of the working population (that’s about 120 million people) works in a small business. And the last statistic for now: small businesses have generated over 65% of the net new jobs since 1995. So, seems like a small business is the way to go, huh?

As a small business owner, mother, and wife, I'm a busy gal. And as a creative entrepreneur, I have enough ideas to keep me going 24/7 for years to come. And I like to paint, draw, quilt, cross-stitch, write, run, hike... Unfortunately in some ways, though, I seem to be wired to work, work, work, and play after. "I'll do such and such AFTER I do my work." Guess when that happens? Yep... never! I never get ALL my work done. What I noticed was that I would get to the proverbial end of regular business hours, and I felt frenetic and panicked and stressed.

Probably one of the biggest complaints I hear from my clients and other entrepreneurs is that they don't know what to write when it comes to creating content for their businesses. They know they NEED to be writing (blog posts, articles, press releases, social media updates, even video scripts), but they're at a loss for what to write and say to their peeps. Believe me, we all have something to say! And, yes, that "something" is valuable. Here are 5 ways to find the content inside you that is just waiting to burst out! 1. What are your successes?

I recently had some issues with a business who was providing a service for me. I couldn't get my messages through: no one responded to my emails or my voice mails. What I found out later was that a former employee had done some damage as she left the company, and the staff was dealing with repeated fires. They didn't have time to deal with me. (And that's another system to talk about another day.) So, lots of issues, lots of holes, lots of missing or broken systems. And all of it can be repaired.

One of the biggest problems I see with entrepreneurs is what to do with all the ideas they have swirling around in their brains. We entrepreneurs love ideas and possibilities! But if we spin mentally with those ideas and never engage with them, we can get frustrated and overwhelmed. The trick is to get those ideas, thoughts, concepts, and plans out of your head. But if you’re not a left-brained type, you might get stuck with the HOW to get them out of your head. (And if you are left-brained, or a combo like me, these steps might help you as well.)

Experts in phobias say that, for many of us, the fear of public speaking is worse than the fear of death. This is because most of us need acceptance from others and fear judgment to some extent. Although the event that necessitates a eulogy is the worst emotional experience, delivery of the funeral speech need not be. The eulogy audience is known for their support and understanding, in fact that is why they are in attendance at the funeral or memorial service. Knowing this, people still feel nervous.

About two years ago, one of my science-fiction clients started a podcast series. Every week he would put a new chapter of his book on audio, and upload it to iTunes and MySpace.

Some writers are under the misguided notion that they can press the F7 key in a Word document, and most of their spelling and grammar errors will magically disappear. This is not so, as many of us have learned the hard way. Not only is the spell-check unable to correctly identify words that are misspelled, but also it often suggests incorrect grammar as well.

1. Spend $15.99, or less if you’re a smart shopper, and get yourself a copy of "How to Write a Book Proposal" by Michael Larson. I know I say this elsewhere on my site, but it bears repeating—this book is pure gold. The first time I attended a writers’ conference, the speaker incidentally introduced the one active agent who was attending the conference. As we walked out of the room, I followed a group of women to a table in the nearby café where I suddenly found myself sitting at the table with this one agent.

As an author who published her first book without an agent, I can tell you that you can reach a publisher without an agent. I can also tell you that there are very good reasons to find yourself a reputable agent. Perhaps you’ve heard some of them before—they are worth serious consideration: • A Sweeter Deal: It’s not always true, but generally, an agent will get you a better package (more money!). For one thing, an agent knows what language to look for in the contract.

Most of us dread public speaking – even presenting eulogies. Although eulogy audiences are more sympathetic and understanding than most, it is still public speaking, with challenges. The period following the death of a loved one is a trying time. You are likely experiencing grief and perhaps shock. With the prospect of standing up to present a eulogy, nervousness, lack of information, unresolved issues, family pressures and conflicts, time restrictions complicate the issue. Funeral speeches are difficult to write, much less deliver. Most of us will cower from the challenge.

A eulogy is a farewell or memorial speech that gives high praise to a recently deceased person. Spoken publicly at a church, funeral home or even private residence, and sometimes in conjunction with a service, the speech honors, commemorates and even celebrates the deceased's life. Although usually delivered by a person close to the deceased, occasionally the speaker is unfamiliar with the deceased.

Aaron Sorkin earned a stellar reputation as the producer of "West Wing," an idealistic TV show about a smart and sophisticated American president with good ethics and equally good policies. Having high expectations for a Sorkin production, I was disappointed in his current release, "The Social Network." "The Social Network" is the story of Mark Zuckerberg, the co-founder of Facebook, which has 500 million users worldwide and was estimated to be worth $25 billion at the time of the movie's release.

Smashwords has directions for preparing your document in Micrsoft Word.

Suzy Prudden and I have written books without complete outlines and we have written books with complete outlines. I can assure you that working from a comprehensive outline that you and the publisher and editor have agreed on before hand is better than working from a verbal agreement with no outline. A good outline guides you. It lets the publisher know exactly what you’re going to do before the fact, so there is no chance of a misunderstanding that could cost you your advance. Without an outline you can go completely off course in your writing. I speak from vast experience.

The term "brainwashing" carries connotations of propaganda at best, disappearance into ideological cults at worst. If we think of it as manipulation to change attitudes, then we're in the mainstream of contemporary society. Our children are brainwashed every day. They are bombarded with messages from advertisements, parents, teachers, relatives, caregivers, street-co er preachers, movies and TV, and peers. Some children perceive these messages as critical—disapproving of them. In any case, they "brainwash" a child's self-concept by the time he is seven years old.

WHO AND WHAT IS A CHAMPION? A champion is more than a mere title. Rather, it is a set, a collection of personal qualities. What are some of these qualities that make a champion? Firstly, * Ability = Talent * Belief in ones abilities ("believe it to achieve it") Champions have the vital six 'C's': * Clarity of purpose (keeps a champion "driving on") * Confidence: They have great confidence in their abilities. Self Belief is the key here. Champions really "trust their game", especially in times of pressure... "when the heat is really on".

I believe personal success could be anything at all - it does not have to involve public recognition. Who is more successful?
