Tuesday Tidbit: Are you overwhelmed with writing your memoir?

Isn’t this the truth?!

Sometimes writing overwhelms us, but here at SM 101, we press on.

We keep searching for the right words, rearranging until each is in the right place. We litter our desks with writing books, dictionaries, and a thesaurus or two.

We write and rewrite and edit and polish.

Why?

Because we have important stories to tell.

You have an important story to tell.

Someone out there needs to know your story. Maybe lots of someones.

Your story might be the one God will use

to heal a broken heart,

or restore faith,

or save a marriage,

or conquer fear,

or spare a child from abuse,

or inspire hope,

or head someone in a new and better direction.

So write on, dear writer friends! Write on!

There you have it, your Tuesday Tidbit.
