Does just being a writer makes you an author, or is that reserved just for the novelist? There are various forms of writing, and we explore several of those aspects. Perhaps most authors will discover they have been a writer all along, as did my panel members and I. Not that a degree doesn’t help, but perhaps it is the passion and creativity that are the driving force behind every great writer. We had a great time discussing this topic.

Words can hurt or bring joy, depending on how we use them. Some words have transformed over the years to take on a different meaning from their origin. Many words started out as a positive and have taken on negative connotations. Others have morphed in the opposite direction. Nevertheless, we have the power to change words to compliment society instead of degrade. By talking about the issues that affects us every day, we can make changes in how we perceive the world.

Paul chronicles his journey from a baby kidnapped from a Chicago hospital in 1964 to an abandoned boy police found two years later outside a variety store in New Jersey. The story made national headlines when it was determined the child was the missing baby. Eventually, Paul (at the time named Scott) was returned to the Fronczak's and raised as their own. Then, in 2012, out of curiosity, a DNA test was conducted and the analysis proved otherwise. From there, Paul set out on a quest to find his true identity only to discover a haunting past. This is where everything gets turned upside down and the story takes a dark twist. Paul (Jack) is still on a journey to find the real Paul Joseph Fronczak and his twin sister Jill.  00:55:00Aspects of WritingnoPaul Joseph Fronczak,Emma Faith Fronczak,James Kelly,Janet Coursey,The FoundlingWriting a True Story with guests Emma Faith and Paul Joseph Fronczakhttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/aspectsofwriting/2017/12/21/the-importance-of-editing-with-guest-paulette-k-kinnesWritinghttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/aspectsofwriting/2017/12/21/the-importance-of-editing-with-guest-paulette-k-kinnes/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/aspectsofwriting/2017/12/21/the-importance-of-editing-with-guest-paulette-k-kinnesThu, 21 Dec 2017 02:00:00 GMTThe Importance of Editing with guest Paulette K.
