http://lynndaniels.com/blog Join me on my journey as a pre-published writer looking to see my name on the cover of a romantic comedy or women's fiction novel. I'll talk about all the bumps, bruises, joys and frustrations I encounter along the way. Wed, 14 May 2008 14:23:45 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en Three times a week, I take LittleDude to his Tae Kwon Do lesson. The moment we get home, I cook up a frozen Chicken Cordon Bleu, cut it up and put it into a plastic container, and LittleDude eats that for dinner while MiniMe takes her Tae Kwon Do ... http://lynndaniels.com/blog/2008/05/14/where-my-dinner/ click on the picture for a larger version Today's Saturday Shot is an older one. I was going through my photos, adding keywords, filing, just some general housecleaning, when I came across this shot from a hike a couple years back. November, 2006, to be exact. I grabbed this shot ... http://lynndaniels.com/blog/2008/05/10/saturday-shot-10-may-2008/ I'm still writing! Can you believe it? :dance: Yesterday, I got all the words I've written typed into the computer. Sadly, I couldn't find the original SR file. Found 8-10 other SR files, but not the one I'd been working off of from NaNoWriMo. So ... http://lynndaniels.com/blog/2008/05/09/progressfly-progresscrashed/ One of the hardest things to do is to write after the muse has left. And I'm not just talking books; blogs count, too. How do you write a daily blog when you can think of nothing to write about? All week, as I ran through my daily chores ... http://lynndaniels.com/blog/2008/05/08/who-stole-my-muse/ click on the photo for a larger version I haven't done a Saturday Shot in quite some time, but since I recently processed this photo for my mother, I thought I'd revive the SS and share. Remember the lunar eclipse on February 20th of this year? When it first started, my ... http://lynndaniels.com/blog/2008/05/03/saturday-shot-03-may-2008/ Sometimes it's the little things that make a huge difference in your day. Other times, it's the offensive things. Yesterday, it was a trip to the grocery store that boosted my spirit and made me smile. Why? Because as I pulled into the parking lot, some guy in ... http://lynndaniels.com/blog/2008/05/02/no-objectification-here/ I got to talk to my father last weekend. He lives overseas, and we don't talk as often as we should. Probably has something to do with the fact that we're cut from the same cloth and both equally stubborn. Anyway, he called to see how we're doing in ... http://lynndaniels.com/blog/2008/05/01/is-that-a-moose-in-the-road/ I remember the first time I read in the newspaper of the possibility of the gray wolf being removed from the endangered species list. I remember questioning the reasoning -- it seemed the wolves had only just barely been reintroduced in Yellowstone, and here we were, about to release ... http://lynndaniels.com/blog/2008/04/23/the-delisting-of-wolf-253m/ With all the doom and gloom I've been erratically posting lately, I thought I'd give you kind of a fun story today. Okay, so the real reason I'm posting this is I finally got the pictures downloaded from my phone. But it's still fun. Trust me. A couple weeks ago, ... http://lynndaniels.com/blog/2008/04/22/leave-it-to-me/ It's been nearly a month since the accident, and we're still dealing with it. We did get some closure on one front, though. Insurance paid their part of the payoff, we're waiting for Gap insurance to finish (could be 4-6 weeks). Thankfully, the bank worked with us ... http://lynndaniels.com/blog/2008/04/14/some-closure-finally/
