September Resolution

Today is September 1^st.

Wow! Two thirds of 2013 are behind us.

My “New Year’s Resolution” was to publish my book. Technically I did. It wasn’t The book I meant, but it is a story of mine, so I guess it still counts. Okay, it didn’t happen exactly as I hoped, but it did.

I self-published a tiny little book with a cute little story. Nonetheless it felt big, and I felt happy.

I felt accomplished for many reasons, not only for the book itself, but for putting myself out there. See, I’m a very private person, but now I find myself in a conflicting situation. If I want to pursue a career as a writer, a published writer, I must leave my comfort zone, and let others know about my work, and myself.

That’s the reason I’m starting this blog at this very moment.

My. First. Entry.

What to write about? I’ve been thinking about that for over a month now.

So here it is, my “September’s Resolution” for this year is to finish The book by October 1^st, and maybe lose some weight and exercise more, one can always benefit from that!

 All this talk about September reminded me of the song by Earth, Wind and Fire, and my dance class that resumes in two weeks. That was the music we were dancing to before summer break, and I loved it!

See what I just did there? I just put myself out there a little more!
