Indigo the Movie

July 19, 2010 by Margaret Duarte

Indigo the Movie

Here’s a clip from “Indigo” the movie to give you a better idea of what I was talking about in two of my previous posts.  Notice that Walsch stars as grandfather to an Indigo. Now imagine seven Indigos in one classroom with a greenhorn teacher. BETWEEN NOW AND FOREVER When Marjorie Veil takes on a class […]

The Synopsis. Yikes!

The Synopsis. Yikes!

Okay. I’ve been putting this off for too long.  Consider it an exercise in self-coaching, positive-imaging, or focusing on a targeted goal.  I’m going to discuss the key to the gate for the unpublished writer–the synopsis. And what do I, a writer standing on the precipice, know about the synopsis? Well, for starters, I had a heck […]

The Indigo Evolution, Part 2

Here is part 2 of The Indigo Evolution–narrated by Neale Donald Walsch–which I introduced in a previous post. In case you’re unfamiliar with Walsch, he is the author of the series, Conversations with God.  He also stars in the movie, Indigo. HERE you can find the full length video on The Indigo Evolution. And here is a partial description of what […]

The Indigo Evolution

In metaphysics, which is the study of everything outside of what science can measure, Indigos, Transitional Children, New Children, and Children of the Now are a much talked about–if not universally accepted–phenomenon, and I introduce them as characters in my fourth novel, Between Now and Forever. Is there such a thing as a new generation […]

Psycho Cybernetics and the Writer

June 17, 2010 by Margaret Duarte

Psycho Cybernetics and the Writer

In 1960, Maxwell Maltz, a plastic surgeon from New York, published a book on self-image psychology and goal visualization called Psycho Cybernetics. In it, he introduced the analogy of the brain as a cybernetic “servo-mechanism”, like a computer designed to find a path to the target it is programmed with. Today, there are hundreds of books on self-image psychology […]

Cart Before the Horse

Cart Before the Horse

I don’t claim to be an expert on writing, so take my advice for what it is, an opinion, informed by ten years of practice, with many missteps and occasional victories along the way. What I’ve discovered and want to pass on to you is that during all my years of studying the craft of fiction, I’ve […]
