Just Read: Worst Case by James Patterson
I’ve been busy writing, organizing my media business and just staying focused on the next steps for me, my personal life, my business life, etc. But you know what? I haven’t been reading like I should. I love reading. This week I stopped by my local library and treated myself to Worst Case by James Patterson. It was a good book. I still like Alex Cross better than this detective Michael Somebody… But it really motivated me creatively. So, a big shout and a pat on the back to James Patterson!
Tip for Aspiring Writers: One of the best ways to stay motivated as a writer is to read as much as you can! Anything that will inspire you to think, be creative and step up your game!
