That's everything for today. My wife and I had a long talk yesterday about a lot of things, and it really got me thinking. I need to focus more on realistic goals and this is my attempt at doing some. The goals will get smaller, just I also have to cram a lot into this next week. Tomorrow I'll have a post up on Teaching in America. This is Jayrod Garrett, the First OG, hoping that you have a wonderful day.
Oh and I'm learning a lot about writing and plotting from Jane. Ladies, I agree, she's brilliant. |
Way to get ahead! I'm just trying to catch up. And this post is fitting. My wife was the one who finally got me into Jane Austin. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks David. I am really enjoying Jane. It is fascinating how she uses conflict in her stories. I really enjoy it.
DeleteWow, Jayrod! Your goals make me look like a slacker. ;p
ReplyDeleteY'know, I've not read Jane Austin. Your post reminds me, too, that I have not made time for any reading just for fun lately. I need to get that back into the mix, since it's one of life's great pleasures.
Hope to see you at #wordmongering and/or #commenthour or even #storydam sometime soon - though, after seeing your schedule, I understand if I don't!
Keep up the good work! :)
Tui
Tui, you're such a sweetheart. I am a slacker, I didn't reach any of these goals that week, but I am thankful for your sweet comments. Hopefully I'll be #wordmongering later today. :D
DeleteWelcome to the Jane Austin fan club. :)
ReplyDeleteI hope the week goes well.

Thanks Laura. That's very kind of you.
DeleteYou know, you could just watch the A&E version. It gets just about everything from the book. =D
ReplyDeleteI could just watch that, but then I lose out on the method by which she writes her plotting. Visually seeing it and being able to read it are so vastly different. (Besides I made a vow to not watch that five hour movie, though the book will take much longer.)
