Out With Old In With The New

Gosh, where did 2010 go? It flew by so fast I feel like I'm spinning in circles from the aftermath. I embrace the beginning of 2011 with a new frame of mind and a new attitude. The question is how long will it last.  LOL Like most resolutions after the first few weeks we fall back into our normal rut and there goes our best laid plans.

I have a lot of goals for 2011. Although it's questionable how much I will fully accomplish. Getting organized and using my time wisely has certainly got to be at the top of the list. January is always a busy time for me. Both my online writing class, where I mentor other writers at F2K, and my normal teaching job starts this month. Then of course, there's the grand babies. Boy am I going to miss them when they leave. I'm wondering what kind of withdrawal symptoms I'll face. Will I need rehab to get over the addiction?

It will be time to pick Jack up from school soon and not a lot gets done after that, so I best run and accomplishwhat I can. Still another filing cabinet drawer to sift through, copies of my teaching manuals to make,  wash to be done, and oh yeah, what are we going to have for supper?  :D

Have a wonderful day and a super weekend.

Writers Quotes

`

It's time for another session of F2K. Writers helping writers. I would like to share a few of my favorite writing quotes. Writing is an opportunity to journey through lands and experiences that we would otherwise only visit in our dreams.

Writing is easy:  All you do is sit staring at a blank sheet of paper until drops of blood form on your forehead.  ~Gene Fowler

Fill your paper with the breathings of your heart.  ~William Wordsworth

Don't tell me the moon is shining; show me the glint of light on broken glass.  ~Anton Chekhov 

Write your first draft with your heart.  Re-write with your head.  ~From the movie Finding Forrester

You fail only if you stop writing. ~Ray Bradbury 

Write because your heart tells you too!
