X is for (e)Xperiment!

A2Z-BADGE-0002014-small_zps8300775cThis month, as I did last year, I’m participating in the AtoZ Blogging Challenge. The first post is A, the next is B and so on every day this month, except Sundays. Last year, my theme was Scotland. This year, my theme is The Writing Life. Check back here every day this month to follow along and find out what I’ve learned in the last year. For instance:

 X is for (e)Xperiment.  When is the last time you took a chance?  Tried something new?  Read a different kind of book than your usual fare?  Wrote a story instead of a full-length book?  

Being a writer means keeping your nose to the grindstone many hours a day for, possibly, the rest of your life.  If you don’t mix it up, try new things, read and write in a different genre now and again, you may get stale.  You’re a writer because you love writing, right?  You’re creative.  Imaginitive.  Sameness is comfortable, but it’s also stifling.
