Not Just a Boring Writer

Not Just a Boring Writer As a freelance writer, publishing consultant, editor, and project manager, Jami is dedicated to help

She understands that often times writing text, copy, or content (as well as editing) can be a daunting, stressful task, and by partnering with her, you will have more time and energy to focus on other aspects of your endeavors. Her passion is simply not to just write words for her clients, but to take the time to get to know them and their own unique personal style. From ad copy to fiction storyte

lling to scientific journaling, everyone, writer or not, has a voice to be heard and a story to be told, and it is her desire to have their voice come through on the page. In Ralph Waldo Emerson’s essay, “The Poet,” he describes a writer as one who gives a voice to the voiceless or as one who possesses the ability to put into words what others simply cannot. A writer’s unique view of life is translated through to the paper, making something ordinary into something beautiful. Emerson has strung exquisite pearls on a syntactical necklace with his words, and these are the words which inspire Jami to continuously work to string together her own words and the hidden words of others into something creative, expressive, and impactive.

A note on writers: "We’re also prone to dramatic episodes and operate in hyperbole."

From Ernest to Scott: You, who can write better than anybody can, who are so lousy with talent that you have to—the hell with it. Scott for gods sake write and write truly no matter who or what it hurts but do not make these silly compromises.

Where does the best writing come from? Through pain... the best of everything comes from suffering through the hard stuff. Struggling, learning, fighting, persevering, and never giving up.

If you find yourself wanting something month after month, year after year, yet nothing happens and you never come any closer to it, then maybe what you actually want is a fantasy, an idealization, an image and a false promise. Maybe you don’t actually want it at all.

So I ask you, “How are you willing to suffer?”

Because you have to choose something. You can’t have a pain-free life. It can’t all be roses and unicorns.

Choose how you are willing to suffer.

Because that’s the hard question that matters. Pleasure is an easy question. And pretty much all of us have the same answer.

The more interesting question is the pain. What is the pain that you want to sustain?

Because that answer will actually get you somewhere. It’s the question that can change your life. It’s what makes me me and you you. It’s what defines us and separates us and ultimately brings us together.

So what’s it going to be?

Sharing this quote again... it says a lot to me: "We protect what we fall in love with."

It is not in the still calm of life, or the repose of a pacific station, that great characters are formed. The habits of a vigorous mind are formed in contending with difficulties. -Abigail Adams

Holding my breath for something to unfold like a beautiful flower or for it to unravel like a delicate piece of silk. "We protect what we fall in love with."

Nature’s beauty can be easily missed -- but not through Louie Schwartzberg’s lens. His stunning time-lapse photography, accompanied by powerful words from Benedictine monk Brother David Steindl-Rast, serves as a meditation on being grateful for every day. (Filmed at
