Time  is always speeding past us.  Always moving forward and going on whether we like it or not. Anniversaries and birthdays come… And often we come up with elaborate ways to celebrate them. In my case, I love to plan and then life does it thing and the plans go to waste because there is no time to make them happen.  Today is different…

Today marks the one year anniversary of this blog going live.  I really didn’t know what I was doing. This site hasn’t been a smash success, but it has been holding its own. Our rankings have been improving by leaps and bounds daily.

As a writer this site has been a conduit for me to develop a regular writing schedule as well as meet some wonderful new cyber peeps.  In a few days, I will be sending a short story off for possible publication in an anthology. It is the first time that will be letting my work go off to be accepted or rejected by strangers. A big step that I am nervous about taking, but even if I am rejected which most likely I will be, a necessary one.

I haven’t finished my novel, but started another project which with any luck and time will be completed before my birthday. Progress on the novel is slow but steady.

Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to read and follow this site.  You fuel my writing on the days when my own motivation waivers.  It means the world to me that my work is being enjoyed.
