“There is no use trying,” said Alice; “one can’t believe impossible things.”
“I dare say you haven’t had much practice,” said the Queen. “When I was your age, I always did it for half an hour a day. Why, sometimes I’ve believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.” ~ Lewis Carroll
It’s a great quote, isn’t it? One of my favourites from Alice, and there are so many to choose from.
It leads us into the theme I’m going to be running at Confident Writing for July and August: possibility.
Some of the issues I’ll be covering include:
Writing with the language of possibility, opening things up for your readers (or your self)
Writing that helps to make things happen: how words and language shape our reality
Writing beyond our sense of what’s possible: trying out new styles, forms and media
Achieving (im)possible writing goals
And a group writing project to help stretch the boundaries of what’s possible in blogland…
If you’re up for some of that please do stay tuned
If you’ve an idea, comment or suggestion for an issue you’d like me to explore as part
