Because I'm an editor, I spend a lot of my time editing. But I have found it advantageous to schedule my writing time. So, I usually try to spend an hour writing for my food blog and an hour working on one of my book projects in the evening after I've done my regular work. I wish I actually kept to that schedule though. :)

I haven't had much of a chance to write on my story, but I have been writing a bit. Does blogging count? I decided that since I often get asked how I create the book covers I do that I'd start a blog about it. It may bore people to tears but it's fun for me.

Oh and I am busy Zelda, keeping up with everything keeps me running!

Great! I've been kind of lazy myself, but I'm about to get off of here and tackle a to-do list.

(Yeah, blogging counts!!)

It's really hard for me to write everyday, so I didn't today. Does anyone have any tips?

Send email correspondence every day to your friends and family, and practice your writing skills in the emails! (Grammar, narration, whatever you want to develop, etc.)

I got a lot of good writing done today! And for the past few days! Yay!

Writing a lot on here. And getting a lot of inspiration. Other than that, not so much. I need to do something about that!

Thanks! It was a first time for us as a family too, so extra special memories made.

HA HA HA HA... that reminds me of, "I'll have another piece of pizza."

Ooh, I love s'mores. Gooey goodness. Chocolate squares of heaven.

Keep us posted if your inspiring trek into nature yields any good writing!!
