Welcome to Litsy!

Infinity out of 5 stars🌟

What an incredible read. If you need a pick-me-up or some inspo for your life or advice...this is that book. It's an oldie (1930s) but a goodie. Very thought provoking.

Awesome read for creatives! Paints a picture that each of us have a part in adding beauty and splendour to this earth. We are kingdom builders.

A wonderful poet friend gifted me this book. As a fiction writer, poetry is so different for me but I‘m enjoying learning new forms to broaden my skills.

"all people, have the same light in them, have their own creative power in them, if they would only come to see it, respect it and let it out."

"she has true self-respect and boldness and will stand up for the intelligence, the light, the gift that is in her, no matter what happens in this life or in the life eternal."

This book is so much more than a book about writing♡

"I imagine you thought, quite arrogantly, that your natural charm had worked its magic on me, the poor solitary and exiled woman. Think again! I am vaccinated against the beauty and cheap compliments of men, and the distance you excuse yourself for taking without much tact will not disrupt my walks, nor my five o'clock tea..."

So, evidently, I have more YA Fantasy on my shelves than I thought. Here are nine choices. One is technically science fiction, but I thought I‘d throw it in there too. I do have others, but I found these first. My TBR pile is embarrassing. I‘ll add tags in the comments below.
ALSO, not pictured here, but in case it isn‘t selected for my other LMPBC group, is The Fire Keeper‘s Daughter. I‘ll add bookmark below.

1: if I think about it, the terms are really synonymous even though I think about them differently in my mind.
2: I have published some academic articles. So I guess that makes me an author even though I don‘t really think of myself as one.

1. I always considered an author as someone who wrote a book, and others as writers. But I guess one could consider themselves what they want.

2. I am not, but really wish I was.😄

1. Interesting question. 🤔 Google suggests that an author is someone whose writing has been published, while a writer is anyone who engages in the writing process regardless of recognition or compensation.
2. When I was a kid I wanted to be a writer, but these days I mostly stick to journal entries and the occasional newsy email. #two4tuesday

Thanks for the tag, @hannah-leeloo ❣

1. I've never thought about that question before and before now, was not aware there is a distinction. But all the fellow Littens who played before me have brought to my attention there is a clear distinction.
Please look for the answers of @kezzlou85 or @hannah-leeloo for a definition.

2. Yes. Always been a writer and storyteller; am an aspiring author.

Tagging everyone who wants to play & hasn't yet. 🥰
