Excellent resolution. The key truly is not waiting around for inspiration to hit, but practice practice practice. (She said, as she thinks of a gazillion things to do RATHER than write : )

I like that one.

I'm still nervous about setting off on another big writing project - after the demise of my last one, I'm still a little gunshy. But it's definitely time to get back on that horse.

NaBloPoMo (National Blog Posting Month) did that for me. Committing to posting each and every day meant I didn't leave so many good potential essays in my head. Of course, 90% was crap. But at least I got the good stuff down when it came.

Swim: GO FOR IT! Great goal. I'm big on the goals. And this year - I am just growing them right out in front of me.
I always feel inspired by a GOOD mechanical pencil, and a great note book, like yours. Keep us posted!

Thanks, everyone! :)

I've been nervous about doing NaBloPoMo; I always feel like my blog posts completely miss the mark, and I'm not sure doing 30 of them in a month would make them any more on target. It's good to meet someone that it worked for.

Haha, so do I. I do all of the actual writing on my laptop, but almost all of the plotting in notebooks, and a good pencil is absolutely essential. :)

Thanks! This is my favorite journal in recent memory. I can't wait to take it with me on the next trip (hopefully in May!).

Yeah for trips :D
Ours are usually too stressfull to write. Talk about jumping through hoops. I'm glad when I can manage a few crappy snaps ;)
