1. Email. Love it? Hate it? How do you keep it
from eating all your time? Check out this post by Claire
Diaz-Ortiz for a great strategy on handling email. One interesting point:
Deal with email when your energy levels are at their lowest point.
2. Recipe time! I discovered this
Pumpkin-Raspberry Bundt cake recipe at Lisa Lickel's blog, The
Barn Door. It's just in time to practice before the big Thanksgiving and
Christmas celebrations. If you make it, let me know how it turns out. :)
3. Chuckle for the day: Ane
Mulligan shares her Melt Down at Stitches Through Time.
4. After almost a month of Internet problems, I
got back online and was promptly swamped. How do I ever catch up? I used some
of that downtime to go through old papers in my office. It was still hard to
chuck some of them into the trash even though I knew I'd never have time to
deal with them.
Soon after, I found this
article at Book
Marketing Buzz Blog. Maybe it will help you as much as it helped me.
5. At the Philly Conference, I met Allen Arnold.
He taught a continuing session on The Heart of a Storyteller. Recently, I
discovered this article by him at The
Writer's Alley and decided to share it with you. It encouraged me. I will
do what God gifted me to do.
Writers: Do slips of paper with ideas fall from
cabinets, spill over file folders, and litter your desk like confetti? How do
you handle all the many projects you'll do someday? Do you re-file them or let
them go at some point?
Readers: Since we're big
into recipes lately, do you have a funny (even if it wasn't funny at the time)
story about cooking or kitchen mishaps? Please share. (If you don't want to
share here, maybe I've given you an idea for a future blog post of your own.)
