Just do it


Doing what I should, when I should, even if I don't feel like it. It's my new mantra and, so far, so good. I've applied it to nearly everything I can think of. Cleaning. Getting back into running regularly. Being nice to my kids. And, of course, writing. It's like Dory says, "Just keep swimming, just keep swimming, swimming, swimming...." (I regularly replace the swimming with writing in the phrase). And the words are important because I don't always feel like cleaning, or running, being nice to my kids or even writing. BUT, I always feel like having an incredibly clean house, abs and/or buns of steel, the kindest kids on earth, AND a lucrative publishing deal. Soooo, I gotta do what I gotta do - do you?

Bombs Away!


The new year has only just begun and I've already managed to develop another quirky obsession. This time, it's seed bombs. Oh sure, I suppose they've been around for awhile but they're new to me and I can't get enough. And I've found my love of seeds and flowers and gardening paralles so nicely with my love of writing and that whole creation process. Sooooooo, I've decided the world needs story bombs in combination with seed bombs. You know, mix things up a bit. Would it be a recipe for wild imagination or a complete disaster? Just a little something to think about....
