“Relief is a great feeling.It's the emotional and physical reward we receive from our bodies upon alleviation of pain, pressure and struggle. A time to bask in the lack of the negative.And yet, think about it—relief is really the status quo, a negation of the suffering, a nothing in itself. It is the way things were before the pressure and struggle began.So, is it a step back? A regression?Or is it an opportunity to regroup, start over, and move in a different direction?Use your moment of relief well.” ThinkingWayWellsDifferentMomentsUseFeelingsBodyPainMovingSufferingOpportunityStepsStruggleEmotionalNegativePressureRewardsReliefStatus QuoStarting OverYour MomDifferent DirectionsNegationGreat FeelingsRegressionPain Relief Author:Vera Nazarian

“While the romance genre has expanded so much over the years, in an odd way it's also narrowed, with too many people trying to stick stories into tight, well-defined marketing niches. It can, admittedly, be a tricky balancing act, but I believe the key is to be able to step back and take a long hard look at what you do well, what makes your work different from other writers, what feels the most natural to you when you're writing.” PeopleWayFeelsWritingTryingYearsBelieveWellsLooksLongDifferentHardStoriesAbleRomanceI BelieveNaturalStepsKeysSticksMarketingDefinedGenreOddTrickyNicheBalancing Act Author:JoAnn Ross
“This is what metaphor is. It is not saying that an ant is an elephant. Perhaps; both are alive. No. Metaphor is saying the ant is an elephant. Now, logically speaking, I know there is a difference. If you put elephants and ants before me, I believe that every time I will correctly identify the elephant and the ant. So metaphor must come from a very different place than that of the logical, intelligent mind. It comes from a place that is very courageous, willing to step out of our preconceived ways of seeing things and open so large that it can see the oneness in an ant and in an elephant.” IfsKnowsWayMindBelieveDifferentI BelieveDifferencesStepsAliveSeeingWillingIntelligentMetaphorOnenessLogicalCourageousElephantsAntsDifferent Place Author:Natalie Goldberg

“I think the best models are actors, you're taking on a character. In that sense, I have been acting for a long time. It didn't seem like a crazy transition. Acting is a bigger step into modelling in a way. Modelling is easier when you don't look like yourself. When you look like a different person, you feel different. Acting goes deeper into that, you have to move and talk like that character.
