Creating a StoryBoard

Creating a beachside storyboard is very helpful when writing your story or an invitation to a fabulous wedding party.

I don’t know about you, but watercolor images inspire me to write. It’s like the words jump out of my heart and onto the page when I see the movement of the blended colors in a watercolor painting. I have found that the movement of blended watercolors will create the emotions that I want my readers to experience and feel that are difficult to capture in words only.

I also keep the following inspirational quote in front of me when I write so that I am reminded why I need to create beautiful, inspiring images to recharge my heart, my tongue, and my pen. My purpose is never to write a story that leaves the reader feeling hopeless or in need of something but rather to leave my readers feeling satisfied.

I avoid writing while I am searching for external motivation. I always unplug from social media and disconnect from negative people in my life. I switch to books, pictures, or inspirational movies to get my motivational heart and mind to create new words, stories, book covers, and creative ideas that will build up my faith and courage to hope more, to love more, and to give more to myself and others.
