I hope everyone is joyfully creating new worlds, exploring blossoming relationships, planning murderous schemes, or just writing some good old-fashioned family fare.
I've been so wrapped up in my projects lately that I didn't make time for a real post. It slipped my mind that today was my usual blogging day, actually.
So it's my hope that all of this month's Progressive Book Club participants are enjoying and gaining from Bird by Bird as much as I am, and I'll see you on Sunday for my next post. And don't forget that tomorrow is Melissa Maygrove's first anniversary. Make sure to go by and wish her well. She runs a delightful site, and I never miss her Grammar Police Mondays.
Peace,
Go Writing! Hope you're feeling good about your efforts-- you sure have given it a lot of focus. I've seen a lot of mentions of your book club. That's great.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Julie. I've always appreciated your support and friendship! :o)
DeleteIt ate my comment. Anyway, Good you are busy writing. I must ask you to delete my name from the Book Club list, my friend. My defeat is clear. I have not been able to get my claws on that book. I'll be lurking from the window, though.
ReplyDeleteAww...truly 'tis a shame, but I appreciate all your efforts in trying to be a part. I understand completely, though. Each book will get a three month advance notice...I hope you can join us on a few of them.
DeleteWhen I was at your blog the other day, I wondered if I was "the friend that you promised something to." If so, really, don't sweat it. I know we can't participate in everything and I really, really am honored that you went to such efforts to try.
Thanks, Al. :o)
Hahaha, not at all Mike. It was my maid I promised I would do all the souvenirs for her babyshower. She asked rather expensive difficult to assemble souvenirs but I had given my word. I really wanted to do this but Mexico is still in diapers in regards of online libraries. Geez, we are still in diapers in regards of reading population! I could only get 14 pages from the assignment part of the book. Not much really, but I'll learn through your comments.
DeleteDidn't have time for a real comment... kidding!
ReplyDeleteWill be sure to stop by Melissa's tomorrow.
LOL! Now THAT was funny, Alex. I'm sitting here chuckling. After I posted, I said, "Well, that ended up being sort of real."
DeleteYour comments are always real. Just the mere fact that you can swing by and comment speaks volumes for your commitment and dedication. I try to do the same, but just can't keep up. Thanks for taking the time for me and my little ol' blog. :o)
Looking forward to the book discussion. Will you post further instructions on how it will work come Sunday? Meanwhile, thanks to Ms. Lamott, I'm off to work some more on a ****** first draft.
ReplyDeleteGo to the Progressive Book Club tab up top, Rebecca. It should explain everything thoroughly, but if not, let me know. If not, I'll clear things up on Sunday.
DeleteHa, I know that feeling... ;)
ReplyDeleteGlad to have you in that boat with me, Lynda...I'm in good company. :o)
DeleteAww. Aren't you sweet to mention my blogiversary!
ReplyDelete(Want to know my secret? Write ahead and pre-schedule. Or at least have some drafts saved you can post in a pinch. ;)
I'll bring the cake!
DeleteI've done that a couple of times - write ahead - but don't have enough in reserve to fall back on just yet. You are so on top of things and organized. I bet you don't have a junk drawer in the house!
I'll be over to wish you well.
Do people ever call you Swifty???
ReplyDeleteAnd being immersed in projects is a GOOD thing... ride the wave, my friend. Ride the wave!
Swifty was my nickname in High School, which later became "Not so Swift" in college from my fraternity buds. LOL. I was crazy and foolish!
DeleteYes - it is QUITE a good thing. I should be thankful that I'm given the opportunities and ability to do something about it. It will sure wear a soul out, though. Where's my regular coffee (It was the wrong time to switch to decaf).
Thanks for coming by, Morgan!
Good morning.
ReplyDeleteTo answer your question, no. It's Friday. Feel better?
:D
Elise - I feel MUCH better! I thought Wednesday was lasting way too long! How's Paris in Winter?
DeleteIt's not bad, but I prefer it in the spring. Glad you're feeling better. :)
DeleteGreat on your writing. I've taken a break this week, but am developing a new series in my head. Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Mary. I've definitely had to incorporate more rest and self-preservation into my schedule. You have a great weekend, too.
DeleteI just borrowed Bird by Bird from the library, but I only plan to skim through it. There's another book I bought that I'm looking forward to reading.
ReplyDeleteMost of my reading is skimming and note-taking. Are you going to participate in BBB this coming discussion. Would love to have you. :o)
DeleteSometimes we just have to wing it on the blog posts. The days can creep quickly upon us.

Lee - do you know how many times I've seen your name and didn't know it was you? Not until Facebook. So actually, I met you around the blogs, not on facebook, so we'll have to adjust my answer to your FB status.
DeleteI'm winging it right now for my Sunday post. :o)
I actually schedule my blog posts ahead of time whenever I can--learned this nifty little trick from the A-Z Blogfest. But sometimes, I get caught up with work, so I forget and I have to wing it too:D
