Nowhere does it say goals need to be set in January. In fact, it's never too late to set goals. After all, today is the first day of the rest of your life. I spent some time this weekend reviewing my writing accomplishments from the past year and made some goals for 2019. What… Continue reading Writing Goals

I Found It!
For years I have searched high and low for the perfect planner, as well as the perfect handbag. I've found the planner, the handbag I'm still on the hunt for. As you can probably tell, I'm huge into organization and these two tools are all about making my life so much easier and, well, organized.… Continue reading I Found It!
Camping and Writing
It's Sunday, April 1st, as I write this. I saw (or at least noticed) my first Robin today. Watched a squirrel busily building his home. And got all settled into my virtual cabin with my awesome cabin mates at Camp NaNo. It's off to the races. Additional family plans have been added to my calendar… Continue reading Camping and Writing

There's… Continue reading Prioritizing Priorities
“J” is for…
The Journey Remember when you were a kid and road trips seemed to last forever? I used to sound like a broken record as I asked my parents "How much longer 'till we're therrrre?" Complete with all the drama I could muster. And as the years passed, I eagerly awaited each milestone. "I can't wait 'till… Continue reading “J” is for…
Silence – Part 1
"We need to find God, and He cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature - trees, flowers, grass - grows in silence: see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence... We need silence to be able to touch souls." -Mother Teresa… Continue reading Silence – Part 1
