Fingerprints...

My friend Maryiln Rockett sent this great quote to me:

This is a quote by my friend Jill Novak, author of Gift of Family Writing - and a magazine with her daughter The Girlhood Home Companion.

Jill says, “Your unique writing voice is as individual as your fingerprint.”

Jill’s quote (said at a workshop she gave) reminded me that my writing doesn’t have to be like anyone else’s writing. It is how God has wired me to say certain things, and no one else can or will say them exactly the way I do.

I don’t have to compare myself to others. I just have to work at writing with excellence in my own style.

How freeing that is!!
