New Articles – Writing Careers, Jet Lag, and Infertility Tests

By Laurie Pawlik-Kienlen, October 2, 2009 11:23 pm

Here are this week’s new articles from The Adventurous Writer; I’m writing in sunny Salzburg, Austria. On my blogs this week, I’ve covered everything from investing in your writing career to overcoming jet lag – which I’m doing right now!  Last week’s new articles included Halloween, Internet Affairs, and Challenge Tests.

Before the articles, here’s one of my favorite quotations from Marianne Williamson:

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.’ We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be?

You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we’re liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

- From A Return to Love: Reflections on the Principles of “A Course in Miracles.”

Lovely, no? And now a roundup of my most recent articles on my four blogs…

What I’m Reading This Week – Book Recommendation

Bird by Bird: Some Instructions on Writing and Life by Anne Lamott is my reading material while I explore Austria – it’s a perfect balance between serious writing advice and light happy reading.

I’m also making my way through Sophie’s Choice, but it’s a bit of a slog. It’s a slow, meandering novel that includes lots of descriptions and background info…not my favorite type of reading. But, I wanted to bring a classic along.
