First we are going to celebrate the progress that Lyric has made on her penmanship. After the flurry of posts, I lapsed into some experimenting with techniques. None of it would have been interesting but eventually, Lyric had a few ah-ha moments and she's turned out this very nice page that was what we were hoping for on Lesson No. 1.
If Lyric sticks with me, we might have invented a whole new way to rehabilitate penmanship. Time will tell and heaven knows, we've got time.
Celebration number two: I just created and posted the 5 lists for the Nov exchange in record time. It took 43 minutes to copy and paste all the sign-up emails into the 5 outgoing emails. We can shave at least 3 minutes off that time if people would remember to type in their emails under their addresses. It's not that big of a deal when I have to type them in. Although it is risky, because I am a terrible transcriptionist.
C No. 3: I found Marion Roach Smith. Whilst surfing, I stumbled across her blog or website and read some tips about how to write memoirs. On the most recent blog post, I read something and left a question in her comment section. She responded very quickly. Her response led me into another unrelated question so I sent the second question to her directly. A couple days later, I received a very nice response from Marion's assistant.
I am celebrating because while I enjoy jabbering and I truly appreciate hearing from readers who say they enjoy the daily blurb, I also feel like my writing could be so much better. I'm sure we will all appreciate better writing, eh?
And there's more.
Stay tuned.
