DE-CLUTTER!

DE-CLUTTER is a vital part of almost all of our lives.

No sooner do we 'tidy-up' and enjoy having a comfortable home/office etc. then the clutter begins to pile up again.

It can become a stress-related situation in many people's lives.

A tidy desk will allow us to move forward and follow what we are most interested in, simply to put pen to paper and write!

Being able to de-clutter is a God-send to those of us who have a habit of holding on to information and writings and half-written scripts etc.

Being a writer is a talent and a wonderful gift to have and share with others, so a disciplined mind is essential.

When it comes to writings of importance, those we feel a special love and affinity with, it's great to have the ability to de-clutter and cut out all those little darlings and trimmings that prove to be non-essential.

We can turn a mundane story or script into a winner, simply by discarding what is not needed.

Equally, we can destroy a wonderful piece of writing by losing the 'soul' of it's contents by a lack of wisdom and understanding.

Take TIME out!

I find for myself that time is necessary to fully understand the gems created in what is written. 

Often, a good editor would advice a promising writer to 'sit' on their manuscript for awhile, perhaps even a month or more.

Come to the pages with a fresh outlook as if someone else had written it.

Be bold and objective and who knows a masterpiece is being created.

Pen to Paper, write, then re-write!

Enjoy the process.
