Writing Mental Illness | Alison Bergblom Johnson: Guest...
Rated • 1 review • mental health, writing, spirituality • blogspot.com
How writing can be a spiritual experience:
"When read with an open heart, an important text can reveal layers and layers and layers. The heart opens, and then the text opens. "I don't remember ever reading this passage!" is something that I've often heard - from members who have read the book at least 10 times. And as the heart opens and the text opens, the pen opens. With the text as inspiration, words flow out from a place that is deep, honest, lively and life-giving; words of passion: of painful regret, delighted discovery, profound connection, all-embracing love, long-repressed hurt."

From the page: Language has "multiple levels like a tall building with a different floor plan for each story." - An interesting research article about writing with a pen vs. with a computer.

Caught In The Stream: My writing tips for surreal world...
Rated • 2 reviews • writing, blogs • blogspot.com
"Write, write, write as you must, but cast your words out to the wind careless of whose ears, if any, they trickle into. If the worlds you create with penned lines or keystrokes are populated by imaginary characters, won't they appeal best to pretend audiences?
Conjure the smiles on their faces as they peruse your poetry and prose. Summon up fantastic sums making their way wirelessly into your bank account. Sit back in your tattered chair and feel it transform into a throne well placed in a palatial estate, no longer the cramped apartment of a wannabe writer. Success in the surreal world is never-ending."

Roots: The Saga of an American Family - Wikipedia, the...
Rated • 2 reviews • african americans, history, writing, books • wikipedia.org
I finally started reading "Roots". It's an engaging and important story but I soon started to have the niggling feeling that it's probably not as well-researched as is commonly assumed. And wouldn't you know it: it's not really a novelization of facts but rather mostly a work of the imagination - and not just Alex Haley's imagination but also Harold Courlander's, whose book "The African" was clearly plagiarized by Haley. - A good and useful read anyway, just needs to be taken with a few grainfuls of salt.
