We talk about daily writing a lot because it's been part of my path and decision making since July of 1994. A habit I picked up while studying the wisdom and experiences of Julia Cameron in The Artist Way. I didn't read a book. I became a lifelong student of an author that understands the empowerment of why you are chosen to be a creative person. But if you don't document the journey what have you honestly learned along the way? On this podcast we put focus on October 31,2016 where a lot of energy was put on the second page. An extremely important page in my daily writing. I write three and more a day. The second gets a lot of attention. The first is always a prayer. It's my discipline. I don't make it to page two until page one is complete. It's not that I'm a Bible thumper. It just clears my path of any debris still clinging to bottom of my feet. Page two is when the writer sets the pace. Not just in the moment of placing words on a page but its been known to control the atmosphere of the entire day. How I approach page two and how it's delivered truly has the strength to make a mandate. On that day in October of 2016 the writer talks about page two in a small piece of poetry called I Turn The Page. When he arrives at page three he begins to question the number of pages that a 26 year writer must physically change. One thought hits him. In this day of billions and trillions and if you don't have them you're pretty much just another number. In this day of huge numbers I realized that maybe as a daily writer I've turned just over 22,000 pages. At that time of writing why did 22 years look so tiny? For my book One Man's 1021 Thoughts. It required that many days of writing to make the book possible. 1,021 is 2.5 years. Now the bombshell question. So many of us complain about getting older and how much we hurt or feel like it's not been fair. At 57 I'm only 20,805 days old. Millions, billions and trillions and in that atmosphere of numbers where do you fit in? Pick up a writing instrument and begin a journey of sharing your story before somebody writes it for you.
