For Your Writing & Inspiration Daily: Quote + Prompt + Question: Margaret Fuller's Candle

Each day, a quote, several questions and a writing prompt are offered to you to use for your personal and creative development. Enjoy!

This series was created with you in mind: you who blog, you who are busy juggling activities, you who rarely get a moment to simply "be" with yourself.

Please read the quote, prompt, questions and list suggestions over once and then go about your day. Your subconscious mind will be stirring up different responses.

Later in the day - take five minutes with the prompt or a question or a list and see what flows. You may write, you may talk to a friend, you may create visual art, a poem, a song: do what you feel most compelled to do.

You may spend more than five minutes, but please in some way allow yourself the time to be inspired in some way.

Allow yourself to be surprised.
