Mewsings from a Bardic Bird 🌟 Angle - 01-30-23

πŸ’š πŸ€ πŸ’š

In Which I take the Word of the Day, reach out to the Creative Cauldron, and bring back a Mewsing for you on the subject of writing, magick, and the magick of writing.

The title piccy for the Mewsletter, containing a Most Kyoot + Fluffy Feline on the left with Rocko the Bold Circus Kitten kneading their furr and a large Raven flying over a red landscape on the right, all on a bed of Rocco the Cat's furr. Words are as follows and I do indeed quote: Mewsings from a Bardic Bird on (and from!) the Magick of Writing.

Today’s Word: Angle

Today’s Mewsing: Having an angle is helpful in your writing. What genre will you write in? What characters and tropes will you use? What Stories will you support as you write along your way?

Who are you writing for? Why? What do you desire to accomplish with your words and your works?

Having an angle (some people call it a β€˜niche’) is useful for how you tell others about your words and your works too. What stories will you tell? How will you do so? On what platforms? In what ways?

You don’t have to know what your angle is – not at first. But as you continue to write, stay open to discovering just what it might be.

You'll find it will make all the difference.

A young woman sitting on a bench near the sea holding a pen to her face, thinking, with an open notebook on her lap. She's wearing a green t-shirt with a picture of a cat wearing a witch hat sitting behind an open book. Below the book, bracketed by human skulls, are the words β€˜Magikal Vibes’. In the background, bats fly and a yellow crescent moon shines.

Writing – like love – is a year-round endeavor. But why not treat the writer in your life (purrhaps you?) to a gift that shows the love of writing – and writers! - now? May we suggest this majestic feline from our Etsy shop?
