The chop makes you think open sea, which is how I approach the challenge - hey girl, outside, this could be any old time. Subscribed to the YouTube feed and will watch them all.

Look straight down at the bottom except when you're rolling to breathe. Check out Terry Laughlin's Total Immersion self-coaching videos. YOu can see a demo for free on YouTube, just search Total Immersion demo.

I learned something, reading your take on good swimming. So that's what I do with water and my head. Most of the time, I must look like a crocodile, LOL.<br /><br />I'm lamentable when it comes to reading. If it's good, I'm a gonner. Lost in story. Living it. Rare is the book that slows me enough to stop and ponder. (Looking for one? Try Crimes in a Second Language by someone we know well. That writer slowed me down, made me go, she's right. Wow.)Morgynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09789636407148182196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1873889619654138974.post-86887517403043030172017-02-09T18:15:28.023-05:002017-02-09T18:15:28.023-05:00I think I'm getting "slowly faster."...I think I'm getting "slowly faster." In my writing, I know it when I see it. I hope someday to get to the place where every sentence feels right. For now, I'll keep showing up and trying my best. Thanks again for another helpful blog.

My golf instructor stood over us, trying to help us with our swings, but at the same time told us not to get so caught up in the mechanics that we didn't relax and enjoy the game. We all want to get better, but we also write because we love it. You always have such insight into the writing life. That's why I love your blog.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06108715396404430718noreply@blogger.com
