It's Been A While

...and I probably need to clean this blog up a bit. Life got away from me this year - I started out with the best of intentions, forgetting that you can only eat an elephant one bite at a time! So, what have I accomplished thus far in 2008? I did get through a fair part of editting my book "Harken the Change"; I did get married in May and travel to Europe in June. I did sign up for a creative writing course at my local junior college. I have thought about writing - continuing my "Theft by Character" train, getting at least 12 more pages written so I can get an ISBN for that book! In fact, just yesterday as I was reading the latest AARP magazine, an essay topic came to mind whilst I was perusing one of the more entertaining articles. But, alas, I have yet to put pen to paper (or fingers to keyboard, as the case may be) to begin. Oh, and I also joined the Northern California Publishers and Authors group today (NCPA - www.norcalpa.org). The speaker at their monthly meeting this time was Jennifer Novak Landers, and her topic was "Using Your Creativity to Promote Your Inner Artist." Very interesting discussion!
