In an interview I did with KFUN radio, I was asked the best advice I could give a writer and, for me, it is trusting the process of writing.  As a writer, all I needed was the END product held firmly in mind and to forget worrying about the 'why's' and the 'how's' ~ I just had to show up every day (that means the bottom on the chair).

Over these many years I have also learned that trusting the process of this thing called Life equally applies.  I don't have to worry about how or why or where I have to make something happen.  I just have to show up with the desire I want manifested held firmly in mind ~ and, miracle of miracles, I have seen my yearnings come about even after the most inauspicious beginnings and dark-of-the-soul middles; when I and everyone else would say, "No way."
