Adventure
fuels ideas. Creative writers step out of their comfort zones and say yes to opportunities that come their way. Prolific Writers value the spirit of adventure, not only personally, but also in their writing projects. Successful writers are explorers. They seek ways to understand new perspectives, cultures and ways of being.
Enlightenment
is more powerful than learning or doing. Prolific Writers write, and continue to enhance their skills to improve their writing. But they also understand that it’s equally valuable to know what not to do. One of the secrets to success is finding the balance between writing and living. The enlightened writer knows what not to do in order to make time to write.
Freedom of Expression
is a fundamental human right. History reminds us that the ability to express opinions and speak freely is essential to bring about improvement not only in life, but also in written works. Prolific Writers practice both sensitivity and resilience as key components in this process.
Humor
oils the gears of relationships. Rather than taking things personally, light hearted writers know that the misunderstandings resulting from differing perspectives are essential sources of both conflict and comedy. The number one rule of improv is to say “yes” to everything. Successful “yes” writers are willing to laugh at themselves, their characters and their critics. The writer who evokes smiles and laughter is one who will be invited back.
