Write like nobody's watching...

There's an old saying, "Dance like nobody's watching."  I really like that old piece of wisdom and what it signifies. It means that we should embrace our joy and let go our encumbrances, our fears, our self-doubts and our insecurities.  We should shed the constraints of self-consciousness and just celebrate life, love, and the pursuit of happiness.  In the bible it says that King David was so overjoyed that he danced non-stop until he danced right out of his clothes!

  When you write, you should do so unencumbered by the constraints of conventional wisdom, societal mores, or the opinions of critics, cousins, crazies, or nosy neighbors. Dance with your muse and avoid the accusatory gaze of folks who think they know better. Spread your wings, let your talent and your imagination take flight... and write like nobody's watching!
