    Have ever got stuck on a plot, a word, a scene or a story so much that you can't move forward? We as writers, believe everyone has been through that "phase". To counteract that stage and to boost our writing community(and the writer in us), we all need a boost, a push to keep at it. Keeping in mind, every Sunday, NewlyWrittenBooks are going to publish a writer's empowerment quote from writers across the world, to spark the writing bug within you. Cover made by the amazingly gifted @druidoflore :)

    Making decisions about yourself is the hardest 💔 task. But as one takes time to read out loud themselves there is always a wise decision rather than the decisions made in a rush. NOTE BEST; This article is not written to mock the ones that have already committed suicide. People make choices and we have and must respect them. Am not, I AM , but I wish everyone the very best. I wish everyone the best in making decisions. Please be wise😘

    An collection of poetry to honour woman. I explore the themes of being a woman, living in a world which is not always kind to us and is always trying to push us backwards. But being a woman,in this age is especially different what with dealing with the modern stress and worry and not being able love yourself because of the perfection seen on social media. Undermining our worth, ourselves not giving enough credit to ourselves. Here, I explore these questions, and how to accept yourself. Image credit:Pinterest
