Brummet's Conscious Blog

Writers Resources In celebration of our popular  Purple Snowflake Marketing  books  (on  Amazon ),  we get to share resources that can help fellow writers  :)   Want more?  It is easy to scroll through decades of previously published blog posts, via the search tool on the side of this blog.  Browse the posts in each month, for decades if you like, in order to find 100's of these kinds of posts.   Writers Resources  posts tend to share at least 3 resources in each post. These are carefully chosen resources, ones that will lead to networking opportunities, radio station contacts, websites for libraries and magazines and places that list publications (or publishers) who are looking for submissions from book queries to  poetry, articles or contests.    Most  Socials  also have "groups" that people can request to join.

      Drum It With Brummet's Hand Drum Circles  January 27th (Tuesday)  7 PM - 9  PM (Pacific) This  2-hour e vent is held monthly, and is for all skill levels and are a lot of fun for ages 15 -80. Bring your own drum, or percussive instrument, but  if you do not have a drum - let us know as we do have a limited supply that we are able to let participants use for events like this.   Drum Circle  participants simply "play” at making music with a variety of drums and percussion instruments. This activity requires careful listening to the music at that moment, as it is being played by members in the room. Rather than being instructed, participants learn to "jam" with other drummers.  Dave Brummet  facilitates these events to ensure everyone is comfortable, playing at an enjoyable volume and having a great time. Held in a beautiful setting in Downtown Creston, BC - this specially designed music room features large, soft, padde...

A Word From The Authors © Brummet Media Group Several years ago I was a guest on the Follow Your Passion podcast but recently I was inspired to listen to it again.  This particular quote from the interview (below) struck me as being of interest to you as well.  If you would like to access the full  Follow Your Passion podcast interview   click on the link below.  https://www.follow-your-passion.biz/1949742/episodes/10651781 " Feel the fear and do it anyway.  It is always going to be scary.  We’ve been in this business 2.5 decades and every time we launch something new it is always scary it is always a little unsettling at the very least.  And we do it anyway. Don’t be afraid to not have the skills or not have the experience. That is ok - most of us didn’t when we first started. There are a lot of things out there that I have yet to learn and sometimes it can be a little overwhelming; a little intimidating.  I try to take it one day at a time...

If you would like to submit, simply visit the  ABOUT  page for guidelines & contact information. Lists I have a book of lists That my life insists I must complete  Before I retreat Down to my room  And out of the sun.
