MONDAY'S MISCELLANEOUS





Progress is slow but steady.

I'm still experiencing problems with my computer, but hope to have them fine tuned shortly.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch...

I just submitted another short story to the folks at Chicken Soup. Hope that this one suits their taste.:-)

Regrouping from a fun-filled Xmas party with my poetry group. In the words of Don Cornelius, "It was a stone-cold blast!"

Busy preparing for my new online class, "DON'T QUERY BE HAPPY!"
Already I've received a lot of potential interest.

Also diggin' making Christmas baskets, herbal tea, and time spent with friends and loved ones.

Wishing you the same! Keep safe and keep in touch...

Until next time

News you Can Use!

First of all, I'd like to extend a special thanks to all my "followers" and those of you that have sent Emails regarding Pen and Prosper.

I do this for you!

Good news...In January, 2010 I will be teaching a new, exciting, informative class at Coffeehouse for Writers.

"DON'T QUERY, BE HAPPY!"

This will be a 2-day workshop to help writers to maximize their potential and their writing income, and live query free, (at least for the most part)!

http://www.coffeehouseforwriters.com/Query.html

This online class will be offered for $39.00, credit cards accepted.

Hope to see you there!

Enjoy your week...

I'M BACK ON TRACK!

In many ways, it's been a challenging year.
But, I won't bore you with the details.:-)

Suffice it to say that I'm moving forward...slowly but surely.
This morning as I write this, (at the crack of dawn), I am so grateful for the writer's life, and for my restored computer system!

Due to a nasty computer worm, my system had been TOTALLY corrupted, and I've been dealing with a lot of technical issues.

Even lost some valuable files to "never-never-land"!
(Folks, take it from me, make sure to back up your work by various methods.)
Often...

But, all's well that ends well. Right?
Today I can look forward to connecting with you, crafting memorable pieces, and elevating my career to the next level.

...Wishing the same for you!
