What I am working on: His Father's Bride
OK, yes, I stole that Beginning from Macy O'Neal's Blog, but it is a great idea, and I hope she does not mind.
OK, it is 11:33 p.m. and I am breaking one of my biggest goals: To be abed by 9 p.m. every night. I guess I should rework that goal. (Why do I always tell you the time....Maybe you will forgive the mindless ramble if you know how late it is?)
I started this year with the typical New Years Resolutions: Eat Less, Exercise More, Drink less wine, have more sex...on and on. But Reading Alyson Love's New Years Blog at Affairs of the Pen, brought me to a screeching Halt. You have to check out the lists she has made of Challenges for you. I picked the 101 things to accomplish in 1001 days.
I like this because I do not have the pressure of a year, and I am not forcing myself to give anything up. Which, by the way, usually backlashes into a session of pigging out on a horde of recess peanut butter valentines hearts that I have hid in my pajama drawer. Purchased, of course, 32 minutes after completing my new years resolution list. I do not like to think that I am weak....more like...I am a REBEL! hahaha. Sneaking into the house with my bag of bootleg candy, feeling the rush of adrenaline from possibly getting caught, and the pride of successfully hiding my stash. I digress.
Listing specific accomplishments on a three year timeline is perfect for the procrastinating pressure hater writing this blog. I have only come up with 33 things, but I am sure I will have the list complete in a few days. While you are waiting to see what brilliant things I come up with, start your own list.
Happy Writing

Ok -- You've convinced me. I'm going to to the 101 things in 1001 days. I'm going to have to think carefully and make my list over many days.
I like the idea of January being a whole month of reflection and goal setting and dreaming ahead to the new year. It's too much work to do it in December -- with all the craziness of Christams. But reflection time is essential. My goal: Have my 101 list by month's end. I'll post it at my blog.
