My Idea Notebook -- re-doing books, writing, more.

How are your ideas going? Great, I hope.

Here are 3 ideas I personally will be looking at and doing today.

I realize that everyone has ideas and things they want to do. It's the DOING them that can be hard, at least for me. I need motivation, and because I do not have a Trainer or a Motivator on staff, that person needs to be ME.

This week:

1. I plan to get my Favorite (and FREE) websites and links book done again. This will be Edition 2, and will cost either 99 cents, $2.00, or $4.00.

I have found some GREAT and free art sites and they really help with things like this blog.

This will be my first e-book. I hope to put it on Amazon for sale. If not, I will sell it on my blogs and websites. OR do both.

2. I will start writing in my Idea Notebook. This is a book like a diary, which I bought to streamline my daily To-Do lists and make each day a Day of Accomplishment. I will carry it with me like my Calendar, and put OTHER things on there to make me realize I am doing a LOT and getting things done. Good luck to me on that, I say. (haha) But the thought is good. The idea is good. Now to do it. It has been 3 weeks since I bought it and the pages and blank. NOW TODAY I will start using it.

+++++++++++++++++++++++

3. I will try to post at least once a week on ALL my blogs. This is a big endeavor, but one I think will be good for my writing, AND good for my to-do list also.

 Have you read "On Writing" by Stephen King? It's great.

Here is a link in case you want to check it out:



I myself do NOT have the 10th Anniversary copy! I need to put it on my WANT list.

Onward and Upward!

 

 

 

 

And be sure to visit a few (or maybe one) of my other blogs and sites:

The Nontraditional Student website and The Nontraditional Student blog

Quick! Get those Blog Postings Done!

I am now posting more than once a week. I like that!

I want to keep it up. I think it's good writing and typing practice. Plus I get to vent and talk about things that interest me.

What have I been doing, you ask? I have been organizing at home (a task that will take about a year in total),  hemming uniforms, doing laundry (a catch-up act), and etc., etc., and etc.

Big on the "Etc." list is an idea of making an Outdoor Journey for Girl Scouts that would help replace the missing elements of Program right now and re-introduce what made Girl Scouting so exciting.

My wonderful Aunt Jackie died last week. As my husband so aptly put it, she was the
"Auntie Mame" of my relatives. I will cherish her memory, and may make a Remembrance Page for her as I did for my mother. Which needs some updating. I will add that to my list too.

One of the blog link nontrad writers on another of my blogs (The Nontraditional Student Blog) is considering doing away with her blog.

I was not surprised. It takes time, but think about losing all that work. Ack.

I have more than one blog, but I don't want to quit. Not yet. It is still way too fun for me.

Other must-do's (besides updating here regularly) are: finish my books, call about repair quotes, go through the books, add some shelves, paint, redo my sites, update my Pinterest, make some more pottery Fairy Doors, put the tomato plants in, and write some more poetry.

Do you have a blog, or maybe more than one? Or maybe you have a huge to-do list you would like to tell me about. Just leave a comment below here and tell me about it.

A curious mind wants to know.

Well, it's time for coffee. I do love that stuff. Especially when I add vanilla to it.

Later,
