I find that motivation for me comes from different  sources. First, and upmost would be my children. My husband and children, I believe any good background, foundation or support system is the key. My oldest daughter, who loves to write poetry, loves to read what I put down. She, my first fan is always asking what is next. She would like for me to snap my fingers and be done so that she can find out what happens.

 All my children are thrilled to tell their friends what I have done, very proud, which gives me motivation to keep writing. I know I am not the best writer, but it takes time, and now that I have a good idea, I can go back and look over what I have done , edit and it will be improved.

My husband, he is my core. He tells me, we do not write the same, but I understand why you write the way you do. He is always happy to read it over and help me in editing.

I also, have to mention, God. God has gave me the ability, first of all. To dream and put stories together. A gift that has been hidden away for a long time. In the bible there is a story about how three men were given the same amount of gifts, one. They were told to go into the world with these gifts. One came back and said that he has multiplied his by ten fold (I could be wrong here) the next by two folds and the other buried his. God said that the two that increased theirs were blessed and the one that hid his, his was taken away. I do not wish to have mine taken away.
