Staying focused on my goals…

…it’s so easy to let life’s distractions divert you. Maybe that’s why so many people talk about writing, but never actually do any writing.

Everything looks like a poem…

…to me now! Went to a CA Writer’s Club meeting yesterday. The speaker was Poet ~ Devi S. Laskar ~. http://www.devislaskar.com/ She had us do some fun writing exercises. I’m not really even into poetry, but everything I see looks like a poem to me now.

Whodunit ?…

…Trying something different with my newest Emerson Mystery. Working with a very loose outline. Even I don’t know whodunit..

” In magnificent glow…”

“… I would rather be ashes than dust. I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze, than…be stifled by dry rot. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet.”  Jack London

Day of the Dead

Went to a recent celebration. It made me think about the stories we tell, while we’re still here. And the stories people tell about us, when we’re gone.
