I've had a great time putting together blog posts everyday for these first three months of 2017. And I do believe I said I'd blog each and every day for the entire 2017 year. But I have realized that by blogging each day, I'm not finding the time to revise my work, nor am I finding time to edit other people's work. Both of those scenarios NEED to happen in order for my work to grow. So here's the new plan. Starting tomorrow, April 1, I'll post a couple of times a week, and I'll keep up the Scenes from My Week post, since I enjoy collecting those photos as a way to keep memories in tact. Once I figure out what days work best for me, I'll try to let you faithful  readers know that posting schedule. FRN, I know you'll be disappointed, but I also know you'll understand. And maybe (just maybe), if I spend a bit more time on my actual writing, I'll eventually be able to tell you that I 1. found an agent, or 2. made the decision to self-publ...

I realize that I haven't addressed the goals for this blog yet. And the first Saturday in January is the perfect time to do so. What I've come to understand over the last year or two is that blogging each day--and getting that time in the morning to do so--is the way I grow best as a writer. Now, the blog posts might not be that great, but just the act of putting a few words onto a page and sending them out to the universe not only gets my creative juices flowing, but it also helps me make my writing better. So this year, just like in 2015, I'll be blogging each day. With an increased teaching schedule, my time might be limited, but my goal is to have a blog post each day, no matter how small. That could mean I post a picture. It might be a short story. I could post a rant. You all know me rather well by now, so I'm sure you'll not be surprised by what you come across. What does that mean for you, FRN? You know what it means. Go back to checking in on me earl...
