hi to everybody
Yesterday I went to my writers' chapter meeting and we had an all day workshop with Deb Dixon who talked about goal, motivation and conflict. It was a terrific workshop and she's a dynamite speaker.
What I learned (which I pretty well already knew) was that I'm not one of those writers who does theory and processes. It confused me. As I listened to Deb talk and took note after note, I got a sinking feeling that I'd been doing it all wrong. But, after a night of processes what she said, I got up this morning and so many things became crystal clear in what I'd been working on. Some people get into charts and left brain writing, I realized I do it instinctively and if I think about it too hard nothing works. In any case, today was a great writing day thanks to Deb and the stimulation of all the writer talk that took place yesterday. Thanks Deb!
I'm back on the South Beach Diet. Blah. I did really well today then had a bowl of Fruity Pebbles a few minutes ago. What? You mean that isn't on the South Beach Diet? Shucks, I just love kid cereal.
Tomorrow I'm going to skip the Fruity Pebbles and be good all day. The diet became important when I pulled on my favorite pair of nice black slacks Friday night. I could get them up, I could get them fastened, I just couldn't move. Ten pounds has got to go!
I'm committed, I'm inspired. I'm just looking for the chapter in the diet book that says I can have Halloween candy!
Off to bed. Tomorrow I'm going to try to get up an hour earlier than usual. I've got tons of work to do from now until after the new year.
Thanks for stopping!
