Being Lifted UP
No. 002
Welcome! I am so glad you’re here, and I sincerely hope you love the words shared in this magazine as much as I do.
Each edition of Words for the Writer’s Soul Magazine gathers ideas and insights that writers have uncovered during (or as a result of) one of our courses. I’m grateful for their beautiful words and their willingness to share.
This issue explores the theme of BEING LIFTED UP. The idea was born in celebration of the beautiful gift writers hold within. It honors the dreams, the hopes, and the desire to take what’s held within and share it… and the beauty that comes from doing so. Sharing words, tapping creativity, and capturing beauty is a wonderful thing… and we believe the world needs more of it, now more than ever.
This issue is both a tribute and a call to action. Please join us as we explore perspectives and insights into why being lifted up is important, share thoughts and inspiration from other writers on the topic, and provide advice and guidance on how to be lifted up in beautiful ways that feel right to you and support you on your writing journey. It’s something that we each have the power to do – both for ourselves and our fellow writers. Thank you for joining us.
