Are you looking to be brought into the very book you are reading…? Inkheart may be the place to start…

The premise was one that would bring young readers into the reading world again. When a father refuses to read aloud to his daughter for fear of her being pulled into the book he is reading, there is need for more than just concern. The adventure that travels through the story helps the read believe in the characters within the story and the writers themselves.

Read this book if you enjoy becoming involved in craft of a writer who becomes too lost in his own words.

Writers in search of their muse need to explore The Voice of the Muse by Mark David Gerson. As you sit down to write, your inner voice may ask: Where have all the good stories gone? To where have the inspirations disappeared? When will you be given the words to share the story trapped inside? Ideas along our inner paths can be found with the pages of this book.

Mark David Gerson provides thoughts and direction on finding and connecting with your muse. He shares exercises on how to connect with the mysterious disembodied voice writers rely on to share their stories. He provides encouragement and meditations for beginning writers and experienced storytellers. The Guided Meditations found within many chapters will encourage your muse to breath life into your words as they make their way from your pen to the page.

The Voice of the Muse tells us to follow our Muse Stream every step of the way. When you write your first draft, follow the Muse Stream. When you revise your work, follow your Muse Stream. When you accept feedback, you guessed it, Muse Stream. Be open to change, but listen to the story that made its way onto the page. The story needed to be told…it chose you to share it with the world. Don’t let it down. Don’t let yourself down by not finding a way to write it.

Take part in the writing activities as you read The Voice of the Muse. As a reader, you may think it is a good idea to skip over those activities. Or, perhaps, you will get back to them some other time. Take the time now. The most popular day to start something whether it is a diet or a story is tomorrow. Do not count yourself in this commonality. Take advantage of the time you just gave yourself and write.

Are you intrigued enough? Are you ready to explore your Muse Stream?

Richard Bach shares insight into his life and beliefs in Illusions. This book was a great source of hope and belief for me as I ventured through college. Bach crosses adventure with belief and demonstrates that without either life can be incredibly boring. With both, life can be much more than many care to handle.

Life is a fact, living is a choice. We all have a connection to a higher calling. It is up to each of us to transcend our limitations and grow.

What can I say of Jonathan Livingston Seagull that doesn’t make me smile..From my family making references to me with his name to re-reading the book at every life milestone, this book has been a part of my life.

It doesn’t matter if you believe in idealism or realism. JLS enables us all to believe in much more than flying. We can reach new heights only if we try. We can challenge the status quo only if we believe in ourselves.

Even if you have read this book before, try reading it again. You will find something different this time.
