Quick Update: You Should See Me Now

Okay, folks...

For those of you who don't know, I have recently moved into a new place with plenty to do. Far be it from me to tell you that you should NEVER move and renovate at the same time, but if you'll do a quick listen in to your conscience, it may be telling you the same thing anyway.

This is the first moment since the move Saturday that I've actually been connected to a computer. So you know, the blogs will officially begin again tomorrow (I had expected them to begin yesterday, but that's how things go when you are still putting in the living room flooring and all of your furniture is jam packed into your office).

Expect some great things the next few days!

No, this isn't me, it's my grand-daughter. But I want to feel like this real soon.

No, this isn't me either. But I feel closer to this photo than the first. This is a photo of my son-in-law.

 

You really, really don't want to see what I look like about now.



Get Real. What Being a Writer Really Means

It's time for a bit of reflection.

Yesterday, the house we wanted came through, and with all of the joy that comes when getting a new house, my next thoughts were, there's so much to do! Fortunately, I have almost a month.

A month!

In the process of moving, I will also be writing, reviewing and doing a bit more than usual cleaning. And then there's the packing and stacking and waiting, because you're living somewhere, but suddenly your heart is no longer where you're currently at.

Being a writer is a bit like that I think. A bit like moving, because there is always work to do and sometimes you're really not sure what to go about doing first.

Still, at the very least I can show you my house.

See that smaller door to the left? That's where you will enter if you're coming for some writing assistance or a book you'd like edited or published. Cool, huh?

Being a writer has its ups and downs as well as its moves. In the beginning I thought I was going to be a journalist. Then I thought I was going to write fiction. And then I discovered I really liked nonfiction. So you never know the moves your writing might take you.

Just like moving into a new house.
