More importantly, are you missing the point? http://writeandmarket.blogspot.com/ Maybe it's time to stop superimposing old paradigms on our products, services and writing. Continue

by Sandy Penny, WritingMuse: http://writingmuse.com by Sandy Penny I received an email today asking about pricing for reading a manuscript that is ready for design. The designer has noted errors and inconsistencies and is unsure of how to proceed with the author: [Good morning Sandy, I'm a graphic artist who will be formatting a client's book after her manuscript is complete. She is not a fluent writer, her grammar usage is poor, she lacks flow and continuity and many areas are "lacking."… Continue

by Sandy Penny: WritingMuse I have had many symbols throughout this spiritual journey called life. The first one was the rising sun. In the mid-1970s, in meditation, I heard a voice say, “You are the daughter of the rising sun, and this shall be your symbol.” I called out internally to the voice and said, “What does that mean?” In response, I heard, “You will come to understand, and you will know when to use it.” I sighed deeply, very cryptic… Continue

by Sandy Penny Why do so many people use a question as a headline? It starts the reader thinking about the subject of the article. It speaks directly to the reader and immediately engages them. It’s a popular marketing strategy because it works. It actually sounds like you care about the opinion of your reader, and most authors do care. So what if it’s a marketing ploy? If it engages you in an internal dialogue and you learn something about yourself in the process, isn’t that a productive exe… Continue

What Do You Want? By Sandy Penny I’ve asked myself that question, “What do you want?” as often as I’ve asked it to others, and with much the same challenge. It’s easy to make a list of what you don’t want, but much more difficult to know what you do want. The process of uncovering one’s heart and soul’s desires is more difficult than it sounds. It’s not a list of things we could buy if we had the money, and it’s not a list of good works we could do if we had the time, energy and resources. It… Continue

Feeling stuck, frustrated or hopeless? Here's what my guides have to say about it ... By Sandy Penny So much is going on in the causal plane right now that we feel like nothing is happening here in our dimension, but it’s not true. Tremendous changes are happening at many different levels, although things may look the same at times. So, don’t despair, the world is being shape shifted, and we are asked to wait patiently while the new and good is being built for us to inhabit. Like building a ho… Continue

By Sandy Penny Back in 1993, I did an interview with psychologist Nancy White who has a wholistic therapy center in Houston, Texas. She has a light machine that is supposed to affect your mood and your ability to handle stress. Combining light therapy and psychoanalysis, she has been quite successful in treating alcoholics, drug abusers, and depression--garnering a much lower recidivism rate than most programs. Nancy allowed me to experience the light machine during our interview. I sat in a c… Continue

By Sandy Penny As most people, I read a lot about other people’s spiritual experiences, and they are certainly fascinating, but the point is not just to entertain and amaze us, it is to spur us on toward our own experiences. Having a personal relationship with the Divine, the Creator, the Manifestor, the Universe, whatever it is for you is the greatest experience you’ll ever have. When you open yourself to the Spiritual World, you throw off the shackles and limitations of the 3-D everyday proj… Continue

Should YOU have a Free Web Site?

By Sandy Penny I paid for a Web site through Yahoo for seven years. It was only $20/month, but over those years, I spent $1680. At the time I signed up, I was living in Houston, making plenty of money, and that was nothing. It was a bargain.… Continue

by Sandy Penny As this year ends, many are cheering the fact that it’s finally over. It has been the most challenging year in my 58-year memory for more people than I’ve ever seen. For me, it has been a big zero (on the surface, but don’t be too hasty to judge it, fallow fields restore their rich minerals and grow better crops.). That being said, it has also been the best year ever for some who have been able to find the new plug-in for their Aquarian Age energy. They are prospering and thrivin… Continue
