Authenticity has become something of a ‘buzz’ word in recent years and appears in connection with many different aspects of our lives.
But what does it really mean to be authentic and why is it something worth paying attention to?
The standard definition is ‘real’ and this is often presented alongside synonyms such as ‘credible’, ‘genuine’, ‘original’ and ‘true’.
These words represent a good starting point but don’t go quite far enough to explain the true power of authenticity.
A deeper level of meaning lies in understanding that authenticity is present when the inner you (the real you) is connected with the outer you (the interface you have with the world). When inner truth and outer expression are in alignment, authenticity empowers all that you think, say and do … and write!

We are simultaneously just a few short weeks, and a whole New Year, away from the moment when I will at last reveal the mystery of what my “emerging vision” project actually is! I am so looking forward to sharing the details with you.
The New Year announcement will mark the end of the initial stages of creation and the beginning of the next phase when communication and connection will become the top priority.
In the meantime, I have recently crossed another major creative threshold which is a reflection of an important stage on the writer’s journey – when you first invite others to view, and potentially contribute to, your work.
This is a significant moment with all creative endeavours which are intended to reach an audience. It is also one of the most challenging steps of bringing a project to fruition.

The “less is more” principle forms a fundamental part of many of the world’s wisdom traditions and represents what might be called “perennial truth”.
The phrase is also more recently associated with the architect and furniture designer Ludwig Mies Van Der Rohe who was an advocate of simplicity of style.
Yet simplicity and clarity don’t just lead to good design. They also give rise to powerful and effective communication.
One of the traps which writers often fall into is writing more than is required to communicate their message or share their story in a compelling way.
It is easy to understand why …

Give yourself the gift of qualified support to reach your goal of being published
The Writer’s Journey can be a lonely path. So much of what is involved in the writing process goes on ‘behind the scenes’.
Working from the ‘inside out’, the early stages of the journey are all about you and your connection to the words on the page.
So you start by looking within to discover the true source of your writer’s voice. This actually lies in the deepest part of your True Self – your essence or spirit (or whatever word feels right to you).
This is also where you discover the gateway to your most original ideas via direct access to the creative energy which fuels the fires of your writer’s soul.
