Where did it come from, how is it controlling them...<BR/><BR/>Maddie, it's okay if you're drinking. Just be responsible, okay? ;) I'd love to have a picture of the Magdalena, NM sign. Sand storms are such a drag.<BR/><BR/>Tracy--Ah, yes, your life's journey has barely begun. It is exciting to think where you might be in just a few years/pages. As Jan said, life is a surprise every day. Thank you for inviting me to Inspiration, Ink, and for patting my head when I was freaking out about it.<BR/><BR/>Many thanks to everyone who read, and especially to those who commented. I was scared to death I'd be sitting out here in the breeze with nary a comment.<BR/><BR/>Somehow Spot missed the whole thing.

I always enjoy the tone of your blogs.<BR/><BR/>It was interesting to think of myself as a wip. I like the idea. It makes me wonder what I'll be like later in my life's journey.

I was thinking of getting a picture but there was this terrible wind/sand storm. Really. <BR/><BR/>I was looking for Spot, though he might be around there somewhere in a basket and clicking his heels.... <BR/><BR/>No, I'm not drinking.

When I start with a wip, I come up with my character chart and figure out what's going to happen -- HOW it happens unfolds and surprises me as I write the book. That's like life -- it's a surprise every day. As long as we keep a positive attitude, we'll be okay.

Magdalenaville is one of my favorite places to visit. I come for the humor, the pleasant atmosphere,the camaraderie, not to mention the Earl Grey. So I hope that if you're successful in reinventing yourself, you'll keep the porch open to the rest of us passersby who are still searching.<BR/><BR/>I haven't read The Blank Book yet, (so many writers, so many books) but I'm now moving it to the top of my tbr list. I love the comparison you made about being a wip. I think most of us are wips, looking for something. But what we probably don't realize is, the journey to the destination is what makes it all worthwhile.<BR/><BR/>Hope you have a terrific, relaxing holiday weekend!Devon Matthewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12147639030654251761noreply@blogger.com
