I’ve been trying to write a blog post for days about the creative letdown that comes after a really big accomplishment, like writing a book. Or at least it comes for me. Even though I finished my part of the book months ago, having it in my hands, knowing its a real thing out in […]
No Time to Create {One Little Word}
It actually doesn’t come as that much of a surprise to me that I’ve kind of washed out of One Little Word. It’s hard for me to focus on anything — even when it’s just one little thing — for a whole month, let alone a whole year. I think I did really well for […]

A couple of months ago I took an online course that was all about planning blog content and tools that would make blogging easier. While I’ve only sort of kept up with the program (and need to get back into it soon!), one thing that did comeout of the class was that I met LaToya, […]
