Debra Diamond I can usually find something to say, although I must admit that it may not win a Pulitzer Prize! The key is to keep writing as you never know. Sometimes a "happy accident" even occurs!
Debra Diamond All of us in the creative arts are extremely lucky to pursue creative expression and call it work! I believe we're able to add to our culture, express individual ideas and hopefully interact with others through our expression.
Debra Diamond Keep going! Like so many things in life, persistence is one of the most important. You never know when the next opportunity might show up and you have to be 'in the game,' writing and if you're intent on publishing, querying, talking to agents, publishers, attending conferences. It all adds up, although I know it doesn't always feel that way.
Debra Diamond I always have ideas and hear interesting situations from clients who encounter events for which there is no obvious explanation. Right now I'm interested in spiritual transformation and there seems to be no shortage of stories from people who want to share theirs.
Debra Diamond I am an intuitive and was asked to give a reading to a well-known near-death experiencer. This individual was struck by lightening and had a near-death experience. Following this event, when he recovered, he found he had an inexplicable after-effect! He was able to hear music ( symphonies) and play them on the piano. Neither of these were abilities prior to his near-death experience. This made me think. What happened to him during his NDE to confer these powers? What about other NDErs? What do they get, if anything? What are they supposed to do with these abilities? And how do they receive them? I Googled near-death experience after-effects to find the answers. Instead, what I found was there was little research into near-death experience after-effects. So I thought, "I guess I'll have to do the research!"
