There are no easy answers about how to earn dollars, yet what work we do can still enrich our lives. Glad you rolled with it and that the post resonated with you, Sue!

Thinking you were going to give me the formula for fabulous success, instead you turned my thinking to what is really important. #1 and #2 resonate with me as an historian. Sometimes, I am so excited about some new discovery in my Medieval studies, I can't go sleep at night. And via my associations in England, I have met so many like-minded people who enrich my days. There is more than one kind of "rich".

Barbara, I'm glad! We could all use a few more reasons to smile, as well as to ponder the fact that our writing is deeply rewarding all in its own.

I will cop to click bait, but people who know this column already suspected there would be more to it. Now you know, too. ?

I am too, Laura. It's a way to connect with the universe and explore deeply my inner life. In that way, I guess my writing is a form of prayer.

All of the above are true for me - especially the people I've met part (love connecting on a deeper wavelength, because we 'get' each other). But I'm one of those, 'I don't know what I think until I write it', kind of writers, so writing has been an amazing self-exploration for me.

A true gift I couldn't have paid for.

Going to critique groups has not only improved my work, but it has enriched my life with dozens of interesting, thoughtful, and dedicated people

I had given up writing before I'd even gotten started, and only began indulging myself again in its joys in recent years.It puts a new spring in my step, and a new optimism. I will never stop again.
