Guilt & Writing

I am interested in seeing if I am completely alone here.

Twenty-five years ago,I was working Full-time. My husband was in the military and he was at sea anywhere from 6 to 18 months at a time, which made me a single parent to six children with various amounts of need. I also volunteered on base at the Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society, the American Red Cross and as an Ombudsman for the hubby’s command.

That should have been enough. It wasn’t.

Like many wives, we nurture those around us before any of our needs are met. There are now husbands that do this work and feel the same isolation and desperation of not being fulfilled.

For my spirit, I wanted, no,, NEEDED to write. I had written since I was about 9 years old and the fire still burns bright. It gnawed at me like something I had forgotten to do …. Niggling from the darkest depths of my mind. BUT ///

Every time I sat down to write, duty called. Someones diaper needed changed, the kiddos wanted to play, the phone rang from the ARC - there was another emergency that needed cleared.

So, for the most part, I didn’t write. Everyday that I didn’t write, my soul morphed into someone I didn’t know. I was taken over by other descriptors. Mom, wife, teacher, volunteer, trusted friend. ( I’m sure there were others I wasn’t privy to - but you get the point!) There wasn’t time for me. The only creative adventures I had were with my children.

Please don’t get me wrong, I love my children and life is too short not to spend quality time with them before they are gone, experiencing their own lives. My husband needed a sounding board. The spouses on the ship needed a shoulder to cry on, a friend.

But I was losing myself.

Gradually, I picked up a pen again to write. I wrote late at night, when the children had gone to bed. I write waiting on doctor’s appointments, I wrote during some of those long nights my husband was gone to fill the lonely hours.

It isn’t easy. Deciding to commit your words to paper is brave - and the world needs YOUR words - your heart.. But how? And how can you do this without feeling that guilt?

I have a bundle for Black Friday that has been reduced by $100. The bundle is the

GUILT-FREE WRITING BUNDLE.

It includes a private one-on-one phone call from me to find out what you need to overcourme to enable you to write.

-A LIVE Zoom that will address the problems each one of us are having and the mind sets and techniques we need to finally break-through and write! …Or paint, or sew, or any other creative endeavor you wish.

- Mystery bonuses for everyone attending that you can use to maintain your creativity long after we meet.!

- A reduced price for any attendees to continue with my coaching - if you think we are a good fit.

One of my favorite personalities always gives a caveat prior to your first meeting with her: she likes to curse. I too, have a caveat. My coaching is Biblically b, ased. If scripture offends you, or speaking of God makes you uncomfortable, you may want to find another program.

In addition, there are many programs, workshops, and coaching that you can involve yourself in. Many of these content creators promise much and deliver less. I truly try to provide content that you can learn from, grow from - both as a writer and as a human being. All the things that you are, need to meld together to fulfill you creatively and spiritually.

All the things you are - are important!

If you think you might be interested, take advantage of this before it goes away!
