Posts Tagged ‘gratitude’

I’m taking a break from my regularly scheduled novel writing to give some gratitude.  First, I’d like to thank those of you who have encouraged me and this novel writing business.  I’ve got ten days to go to complete the NaNoWriMo challenge, which really equates to seven because seriously, how am I supposed to have Thanksgiving plus a craft show the two days following and also write over nearly six thousand words those days?  Your continued encouragement is appreciated.

Me, these days.

Secondly, I’d like to thank Kelly Robinson who is the author of the blog Book Dirt.  She so graciously featured my very fun (and often irreverent and naughty) pulp magnets on her blog.  Her blog is all about books, and she, being a ghostwriter, freelance writer, and essayist, along with working in a bookstore for over sixteen years, knows her books.  And better still she appreciates a good book cover.  I’m flattered that she finds my pulp magnets worthy of mention in her blog, but I must say I still love them myself even after making them for years.  If you’re a lover of writing, a lover of books, or a lover a blogs go and check out Kelly’s blog.

Kelly points out the fact that in my Etsy shop most of the magnets only have “one available.”  I’d like to make it perfectly clear that if anyone wants more than one of a certain kind I’m happy to oblige and will make more.  Afterall, I’m in the business of not only making magnets, but also making my customers happy.

Thank you, Kelly, for such high praise, and the rest of you for your support in my crafting and writing endeavors.  I’ll be back soon, you can be sure.

A Toast

Last night Husby and I toasted our good fortune.  Every once in a while you have to sit back and realize what’s really good in your life.  It’s easy to focus on the negative, even if you mean to improve it.  But to sit down and say I’m grateful for the things we have, the good relationship we have, and the future looks bright makes a huge difference.

A couple of glasses of wine, gratitude for the present and hope for the future.  It was an excellent evening and an great way to start the weekend.
