Just a quick post as I am still 20K away from winning NaNoWriMo. I just need to publicly express gratitude for friends who are supportive of my writing, family who allow me to be true to myself and my dreams, customers who support my Stampin'Up! business, co-workers who help make my telecommuting a success...the list of wonderful people in my life goes on and on. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart.
A quick update on a few things:
First, NaNo is rocking along, especially now that I have a name for the mule (Jack, short for jackass--not original but it quite suits his personality). The novel's title is now officially "Don't Trust the Rain" and the story outline has grown from one book to a trilogy (or more): "Rain" is 1862, followed by "Thunder" in 1863 and "Lightning" in 1864...
Second, Stampin' Up! has a great beginning planned for 2010. Some fantastic new products in the Occasions Mini Catalog and of course, the annual Sale-A-Bration event. I hope to post links to the mini catalogs shortly after December 1 (obviously after NaNo). Until then, various holiday specials are all featured on my website (the link above or to the right) and what's easier than shopping from home in your pajamas and having your order delivered to your door?
Third, a quick note about Operation Write Home. Their next big push is for Valentines for the troops to send home, especially to their children. Visit their site; the Valentine mailing deadline is January 5 and they could use all the support we can give.
Again, I am so very Blessed to have the life and friends I have; all of you are loved and cherished. As we continue the holiday season, please take time to list the blessings in your own life--and may there be many!
Who knows what will appear here? The angst and triumphs of a fledgling novelist, book and movie reviews, green living tips, card making and paper crafting--and yes, sometimes, rants or raves about life in this great day and age. Come and join me on the journey!
"I like living. I have sometimes been wildly, despairingly, acutely miserable, racked with sorrow, but through it all I still know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing." ~ Dame Agatha Christie
