Vice President’s Column

Do you make resolutions for the New Year?

One resolution that I would encourage all CWG members to make is to write more.  Anne Faye, in a recent CWG post, talks about the value of finding 15 minutes a day to write. Whether it’s a journal, blog, essays, articles, short stories, a play, a non-fiction book or a novel, when we increase the frequency of our writing, we improve.  A fellow Catholic novelist once told me that the only way I could improve as an author was to write and to write a lot.  Most authors take a lifetime to perfect their craft.

Join a live writers’ critique group or an online critique group. And…try to schedule just 15 minutes of writing time every day.

You’ll be glad you did.

On behalf of the Catholic Writers Guild Board, I’d like to wish everyone a Blessed and Happy New Year.
