writer's brain

Today's the kind of perfect, lived-in Saturday that feels just like my favorite pair of faded jeans.
 As usual, I am sitting before a blank screen with scenes and emotions and fictional humans in my head, eager to find their way onto paper. There is a mini Gourmet Espresso candle flickering to my left, and a floral notebook full of character inspiration photographs to my right.

Today I just really want to praise the Lord for words. For the Bible, and books, for all of the blog post updates about NaNoWriMo, and for the entire concept of storytelling. One day I will see my novel completed, fleshed out, living, breathing. I can't wait for that day, but I'm also enjoying every little moment of crafting it. 

What about you? Currently enjoying a writing day? Reading any good books?
I welcome your recommendations! 

+ That Espresso candle really smells like coffee, if you were wondering. #wowza
+ If you love coffee & writing & feeling inspired, you must check out this site I'm using this morning.
