How did multiple major holidays get butted up against the new year? Are you as overwhelmed as I am to resist Auld Lang Syne’s annual review? Fortunately, when it comes to my novels (about them here), querying produced some literary agent nibbles that I’m waiting to find out about.
These are some “life tips” that coagulated these 12 months. Feel free to comment and add your own…
- Vicuñas, like these ones photographed by Marshallhenrie, always perk me up!
- Reading fiction expands my heart and soul.
- Good intentions and optimism are super powers.
- Anyone who expects me to shut up and stop asking questions isn’t a friend.
- Generally, generalizing is wrong and it keeps me from seeing people as individuals.
- Guilt and shame can either spell doom, or become springboards for positive change.
- Luckily, much of what I wish for never comes true.
- Conditioner works better than soap on very dry days.
- Scouring my doggie’s teeth with a textured thin cloth is easier and more effective than using a doggie toothbrush and toothpaste.
- Listen, listen, listen to my own body, heart, and mind. Listen to people who listen to me.
