Never Delete

June 16, 2020May 25, 2021 ~ LaShona Sellers ~ Leave a comment

Have you ever felt as if you've written a phrase or sentence so perfect, so poetic only to realize it just doesn't fit the piece you're writing? As a writer, one of the most valuable bits of advice I've received is to "never delete." Words, phrases, sentences, paragraphs that may not work in one piece … Continue reading Never Delete

Absolutely Adoring Alliteration

January 16, 2020May 25, 2021 ~ LaShona Sellers ~ Leave a comment

http://www.teepublic.com Depending on my writing mood, some days I'm too wordy and other days I'm not even sure my sentence conveys a complete thought. But no matter my mood, I often journey to the magical, mesmerizing world of alliteration. The challenge to find the perfect combination of words with just the right lyrical flow is … Continue reading Absolutely Adoring Alliteration

Journaling is Life

November 13, 2019May 25, 2021 ~ LaShona Sellers ~ Leave a comment

I love journaling. Like so much so that I designed a workshop to share the love and the benefits (although scheduling hasn't allowed me to present it just yet, it's coming...see previous post Writers Speak). I have over 20 years worth of journals stored in bins and periodically go through them to find ideas or … Continue reading Journaling is Life

Writers Speak

October 29, 2019May 25, 2021 ~ LaShona Sellers ~ Leave a comment

A wise woman told me, "Writers speak and speakers write." I have a tormented relationship with public speaking. Tremoring, sweaty hands, a flip flopping stomach and a shaky voice don't equal good times for me. Speech Communications was the first class in which I ever received a C. I often say I can write it … Continue reading Writers Speak

She Writes and SheSpeaks 2019

October 19, 2019May 25, 2021 ~ LaShona Sellers ~ Leave a comment

I try not to overemphasize everything as "life changing." Because honestly some moments and experiences are amazingly awesome but our lives return to status quo pretty quickly. So when I say that SheSpeaks 2019 was life changing, I mean it completely changed my perspective, my approach and my momentum. It was the push, the kick … Continue reading She Writes and SheSpeaks 2019

Great Writers…

October 15, 2019May 25, 2021 ~ LaShona Sellers ~ 2 Comments

“Great writers are great readers.”-Lysa Terkeurst I’ve loved books for as long as I can remember. My Little House on the Prairie book set ranks as one of my favorite Christmas gifts as a kid. The regular library visits my parents began with me as a child, I have continued with my own children. So … Continue reading Great Writers…

You may be a writer if…

October 9, 2019May 25, 2021 ~ LaShona Sellers ~ Leave a comment

While showering, you craft a beautifully flowing paragraph...only to forget it as soon as you turn off the water. Ugh! But don't fret! Science can explain our dilemma (Why We Have Our Best Ideas in the Shower: The Science of Creativity). And lo and behold, there's a solution? How did I not know that Aqua … Continue reading You may be a writer if…

Perspective…

October 8, 2019May 25, 2021 ~ LaShona Sellers ~ 1 Comment

Photo by Ivan Bertolazzi on Pexels.com I write because I have a passion for the written word. I have a brain overflowing with stories and ideas that must be recorded and shared. I exercise my pen and my keyboard for my freedom. The flow of my words therapeutic, a divine intervention. Published or unpublished, hundreds … Continue reading Perspective…

No Day Like Today

November 8, 2017May 25, 2021 ~ LaShona Sellers ~ Leave a comment

Wow it's been literally years since I've posted. I thought I might make a New Years resolution or a holiday declaration to jump back in but I figured there's no day like today to start anew.  A lot has changed in the world of blogging in my absence  and I realize I'm probably way outdated … Continue reading No Day Like Today

Love and Adoration

November 22, 2013May 25, 2021 ~ LaShona Sellers ~ Leave a comment

Can I just gush a minute? About Jesus you ask? Well of course, He is absolutely the best thing that has ever happened to me. My life without Him, I don't even want to imagine! About my hubby and kids? Well I love them madly, they are my motivation, my home team, we are the … Continue reading Love and Adoration
