Here’s To Turning Up The Thermostat

Posted on June 27, 2016 by beverlymagid in Beverly's Blog

I’m not a viral type blogger, it takes too much of my time and energy to be writing blogs everyday,but it is ridiculous that I haven’t written anything yet this year. That it’s almost July is scary enough. Does everyone else wake up six months into a year and also suddenly scream, “OMG, it’s almost […]

Read As If Your Writing Depended On It – It Does

Posted on November 21, 2015 by beverlymagid in Beverly's Blog

It’s hard to believe I haven’t posted since July 2, but life and writing have continued at a fast pace. After a week in Idyllwild’s Fiction Writing this summer, I actually went back to my novel. I should say I re-began my novel and have been at it ever since. Now in the middle of […]

Keeping the writing flame alive

Posted on June 22, 2015 by beverlymagid in Beverly's Blog

I’ve been thinking about the next book for forever it seems, without getting much on the page.  I still have a lot to research it’s true, but something keeps distracting me from consistent time at the computer.  I’m sure every writer has had the same problem.  Well, maybe not Every One, but those who are […]

When a good story with compelling characters also brings history alive for me, I am hooked. Sown in tears is such a book.

After many weeks of research I finally was put in touch with a group (Volunteers of America) who are setting up a housing and full service project for homeless female vets and […]

GRATITUDE, A HARD ROW TO SOW

Posted on October 26, 2014 by beverlymagid in Beverly's Blog

It’s so easy to be grateful on the first day, when the doctor says “it’s not your hip, the fractures are not displaced and you don’t need surgery.” Wow, gratitude just oozes out of me. I am introduced to the wonders of a walker, I can get around my apt., a piece of cake. But […]

Why do all those eureka moments only come at three am in the morning?

Posted on August 18, 2014 by beverlymagid in Beverly's Blog

I had written narratives of the characters, description of the location, background of their history- everything but a story. For months this had gone on, while I fretted that nothing new was occurring to me, that it all seemed so dry and stale. Been there, done that. Until one late night that turned into sleepless […]
