Today’s Writing Quote
“Reprogram your brain
so THE END isn’t a giant finish line.
You got pages done today.
You’ll do more tomorrow.”
— Eric Heisserer
Today’s Inspirational Video
The soundtrack to The Shawshank Redemption is one of my go-to pieces of music for inspiration. And the composition “The Shawshank Redemption” which accompanies Andy’s escape from prison is one of my very favorites. In fact, I have a CD of the soundtrack autographed by its composer Thomas Newman.

Onward!
UPDATE: The recent 24 Hour Writing Scamper-A-Thon on Saturday, hosted by 24 different writers around the world, was fantastic. And one of the really nifty aspects was how hosts and participants uploaded cool visuals to inspire writers to write. Like this one:
When Stringer Bell from “The Wire” suggests we should be writing, I don’t know about you, but I get my ass in my chair and I write! This photo was posted by Anita Brandt Burgoyne who deservedly is today’s recipient of the Trumbo Awards!
Now let’s go make Idris Elba happy and get some writing done!
