Lynn,

I'll send you a PM. Don't want to sabotage Jan's Lessons.

Thanks,

Lillian

Creative nonfiction can be contrasted with journalistic writing, which presents facts and observations with far less emphasis on the craftsmanship or art of writing. Jan, Thanks for clarifying the term for me. Contrasting the term with journalistic writing was a great analogy because now I view cre...

Jan, one more question...How much does style, word choice, and form impact creativity? In other words, can the usual be dressed up by the above so as to appear out of the box?

Jan, my short list of phrases for jump did not include any of the listed phrases, but other than the ones on your list, I couldn't think of additional synonyms. Jumping through hoops, ( I see you used this later in your lesson) jumped out of my skin, Jump start, and Jump to the next point. I think o...

Jan, I'm planning to participate in this week's lesson, but I'm just taking a break from being knee deep in writing a very creative ( I think) challenge piece for this week's topic. By the way, your post is an example of what Deb has described as a "Trojan..." On my computer, your words &q...

Congrats everyone I guess when you have no yellow boxes until you beg then end up with only 3 it's a sure sign that no one said -"Oooh, read this one!" Back to the drawing board! :roll: Please forgive me if I'm wrong, but I detect a little discouragement in your words. And I want to urge ...

Hi!
Where do you plan to start the group in New York? I would love to know. If you don't want to give out the address here, please feel free to contact me via PM.

Many blessings,

Jan, I've just taken a time-out from writing a piece for this week's topic. And I apologize for this comment being so off-topic, but curiosity is getting the best of me. When referring to the challenge, why isn't it "challenge" capitalized? I do intend to do the homework for this lesson af...

But if the whole meal is offered with excellence, it won't be forgotten, no matter at what point the diner has the champagne. Great point, Jan! It's great to have choices. If the Scripture is at the beginning, perhaps we can call it an appetizer Or, like Jesus at the wedding, we can save the best f...

Hi, Catrina I read your article, and it raised another question that I hope Jan will answer before she posts her comments to you. I hope it's okay to piggyback on your request. :D Great message, by the way. Jan, I've noted the comments of some about not reading or skipping over the Scriptural refere...

Same goes for Lillian. Her words are like God's voice speaking to me. Thanks, Lynn, for your encouraging words. Like you, I write as God directs, then leave the results with Him. There are SO many great writers on this Forum. And I pray that the One who inspires us all will help us always to "...
