After publishing my first book, it took me over a decade to finally finish another. Striving for perfection, we can stifle our dreams. Many of my wild or not-so-wild visions include writing in multiple genres—a book of poems, a novel, a playful little book about teaching writing in Bangkok.
Five wild visions or dreams for your writing and life are:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Pick one and imagine this dream or vision coming true. Or, even bolder, live out the dream and then write about it!
