Several years ago, I had friends who were writing for a small publisher’s imprint — AWOCBooks.com/Devoted Books. Devoted to Truck Driving, Devoted to Quilting, Devoted to Cooking, just to name a few. I decided I wanted to write one too. Mine would be Devoted to Creating. Some people argued that since I don’t paint, I […]

Spotlight on 80 Creativity Tips
I started out writing a book of creativity tips with the idea that I would do one creativity tip per day. That was a daunting task. Then I thought that 100 would be good. I don’t remember why I decided on 80 instead, but it sounded like a good, round number. Every tip is based […]
Continue readingOops! – Create Your Own DIY Planner Promo
I was looking at reports on Amazon about my books. I noticed something that made me go “Hmm….” I forgot to set up the free promo for Create Your Own DIY Planner! That’s fixed now. Instead of ending on Tuesday, it will run from tomorrow (Sunday) to Thursday. Grab yours while you can!
Continue readingA New-ish Endeavor
Why do I say “New-ish?” It’s still writing. It’s something I’ve thought about doing. But I’m finally doing it. What is “it?” I have been collecting ideas for short ebooks that I want to do. Then I started looking at the files on my hard drive and it hit me. I have a good variety […]

I have been putting together a list of books that I’ve read that I would like to recommend to you. I was going to wait until I finished reading my current book before I posted that, though. Then I decided it would be a disservice to you to put that off. Yes, this book is […]

I am determined to make a go of this blogging thing. I don’t know why I’m so sporadic with it. Once again, I am participating in the Ultimate Blog Challenge. I feel like if I make it through an entire month of daily posting, I can then set a sustainable schedule and maintain the blog […]
Continue readingWhere’s My Reset Button?
It’s no secret that I’ve had problems with consistency on this blog. Back in May, I attempted to revive it. Then I had to go back to Wound Care and keep my foot up for another month. On Friday, I was discharged from Wound Care (again) and now I’m back to the blog. The difference […]
