Of Romance, Truth, and Purging the Hidden Pools of Consciousness…
Posted by Anjuelle Floyd | Filed under Articles and Essays
Many things can happen during the approach towards the heart of a story, or novel, both for the protagonist, and the writer.
The blossoming flower of romance provides a mainstay in many stories that tug and keep open the hearts and minds of readers, wherein new possibilities enter for them to ponder both in the narrative line of the story, or novel, that perhaps offers a mirror into their own lives.
We come to books, and read not only to know that we are not alone, but also to solidify, validate and unconsciously prepare ourselves for the one constant in all of human living–change.

Our goal is to remain open to the words coming through us. We must turn off the internal editor and write.

Of Borderlands, Willingness and Shifts in Consciousness…
Posted by Anjuelle Floyd | Filed under Articles and Essays, Musings
Leaving the world as it is, and entering the border between the world as it was, and presently exists in the newly leveraged chaos of change requires courage and faith. It also asks for willingness to acknowledge that one has entered the unknown.
Like our protagonists, each time we venture to write a new story or novel we exit the comfort zone of what we have accomplished, and depart once more into that land of yearning and desire.
