Novel writing conference

Hi Everyone!
I attended an excellent novel-writing conference today put on my Southwest Writers. I was looking for inpsiration to begin a new book. I think I found it! I'll let you know what it's going to be about soon.

My memoir, Avoid Mosquitoes--and Other Impossibilities has gotten wonderful reviews on amazon.com and has won two awards (Editor's Choice and Rising Star). Thank you everyone! If you haven't read it yet, I hear it's a great read! :)

I wrote another children's book this summer. My aunt, who is a marvelous artist, is painting pictures for it. It's a picture book designed for 3-6 year olds. I won't mention the title yet--but it's coming soon.

Let me hear from you!

Risk making a fool of yourself! It's freeing . . .

How many times have you thought of doing something and then, second thoughts: I don't want to make a fool of myself. I love Dr. Phil's comment: "You wouldn't care so much about what people thought of you if you knew that they didn't."

What's your passion? If you could do anything in the world without consideration for making a living, what would it be? Don't discount anything--even it it seems ridiculous.

Hope is a good thing

Some people may think that I am an idealist when I say hope is a good thing. When I look down a dark tunnel, even if I see no light in the distance, I still believe that there is a light.

What we can see is often not the complete picture. Only when all the parts of the puzzle are in place are we able to see our experiences for what they were--to get us to what we are.
