life of a georgia Artist

A lot of you reading probably want to write but are not sure where to start. I have been doing my morning writing in my journal and have come to realize you might all be lost, so lets talk about what to write in first. As many authors have said you can write in whatever you want, but let me suggest a nice journal. I have an Italian leather one from Italy. Barnes & Noble sell them. I bought it for myself for a birthday one year because I thought even if I write crap it will be nice to put it in something beautiful. Now you can write on paper, three subject notebooks, or journals, but it is the writing that matters. I have a favorite cheap pen I use all the time and found that works best for me...

Good Morning, I come to share some words and thoughts with you lovelies. I have recently been reading, basically some GO GIRL type of works and it hit me how so mannnnnny people actually need to hear it. When did we as women stop believing in ourselves that we need someone to tell us we are enough, that we are blessed to have our kids, that we can do what we dream of doing? Now do not get me wrong, this lady saying it is smart and encouraging and a great cheerleader of women, but why do we as women no longer believe it on our own? Perhaps the world has once again shifted. Perhaps you have been through hell in your life and need to hear it again, perhaps your world has shrunk so far that it is just you in it, but whatever it is I am here to agree with this young lady and say you are enough.

So I apologize for this being a little late. I had to have surgery and got behind. This was my last coffee house of the summer. It is pretty local compared to the rest. It is about 30 min. south of me. It is brand new and called Bodega Brew. The owner is amazing and very interested in feedback. She spent sometime talking writing and author night with me. The ladies behind the counter know their stuff and can help you with it all. Coffee  and me go together like Apple pie and America. I used to hate it, but in recent years I have a taste for it. I like trying different coffee houses because they all a brand they prefer. I have to say Dancing Goat in Decatur Georgia has amazing coffee. Bodega is filled with local people. It also is filled with people interacting and no phones in site. They have outside seating or inside. They have bakery items if you care to have a nibble.
