Spring as a Time of Renewal for Writers

By Irene S. Roth

There is so much to say that’s positive about spring, such as longer days, warmer temps, sunnier mornings, warmer breezes, backyards that are beckoning decluttering and cleaning up, garages that need to be decluttered, and other stuff that keep hanging over our heads.

Wouldn’t it be great to use the same metaphors to renew and revitalize our writing life? Wouldn’t it be great to be more productive and declutter parts of our writing life so that we can be most productive during spring and beyond? Wouldn’t it be great if we took this time to clean of our desk and perhaps shed some bad habits so that you could move into the second quarter of the year confidently? In this e-book, I will show you how to do just that!

About the Author

Introduction

I have been wanting to write a book about springtime renewal for writers for a long time. This is such a time of replenishment and hope. Everything is becoming alive. As a result, we feel inspired to be more and do more.

The buds are forming on the trees and shrubs, signaling new life. Birds are chirping outside my window. I even saw a few cardinals in my cedar trees for the first time yesterday. They have been singing and chirping to each other. There is nothing as lively as cardinals to grace our spring landscape.

There is so much to say that’s positive about spring, such as longer days, warmer temps, sunnier mornings, warmer breezes, backyards that are beckoning decluttering and cleaning up, garages that need to be decluttered, and other stuff that keep hanging over our heads.
