- National Lifewriting Month (“The Chinese word for ‘love’ is made up of many brush strokes. In the center of the word ‘love’ is the word ‘heart.’ Love is made of heart… The word ‘heart’ is also in ‘virtue,’ ‘grace,’ ‘compassion,’ ‘ambition,’ patience,’ ‘loyalty, and ‘melancholy.’ Please write the stories that speak from your heart. If you need recommendations for “how to books” on writing, please click here.”)
“Reach out, not stress out, when pursuing your dreams!”
