Welcome to My Writing Blog!!


JUST DO IT!

So, get out the tools of your trade, make an artistic space for yourself, leave behind your fear of failure, your low self-esteem and actually create, using your words, your brush, your pencil, your instrument, your dance steps - whatever it takes, to move forward with your creative pursuits.

MY GOAL: I am giving myself one year to finish my book - to have it completed, edited by my daughter and ready for publishing.

Please join me on this journey. And as I write and share my story with you, hopefully it will inspire you to make your own personal artistic journey and share it with me.

So, here's one of my writing challenges now that vacation is over. Obviously, I won't have as much time to write and...it will be tough to log in any computer time because my over achieving daughter :) who is taking 5 million AP courses in school needs it a lot for her homework and projects. So, I have asked her to do her computer needy homework when she first gets home so I can use it later. Problem is...sometimes pretty much everything requires the computer.

Tonight I didn't use the computer to work on my book. I worked in a notebook because I have to figure out some particulars. Actually, I am trying to figure out how to get my book to end. I tend to be just a tad verbose (okay, a BIG tad) and it's getting to the point where I need to close it down. I'm still on my first draft, which is more detailed than a typical first draft, but will need mucho editing when I am able to finally able to...stop...talking (writing) :)

I would love to talk a bit about the idea of my book, but just in case someone I don't know follows my blog...well, let's just say I want to keep the idea a secret until it's published.

Okay, see you later gater XO
