After reading some of the comments from today's post I'm thinking I should do a weekly post on how I'm working to lose my weight to help motivate you to join me. (Or help motivated those who don't need to lose but want to get toned.) So starting on Monday, I will not only post my writing prompt, I will also do a post on my weight, my goal weight, and a picture of what I look like now.
Let's Get Up and Get Moving Together!
Join Marsha Cook and V S Grenier on September 7- 10AM PST 11AM EST NOON PST 1PM EST as they welcome Barbara Rogan. Barbara has had an incedible career and she is still doing so many things to help writers. This is going to be a great show that will be both entertaing and very informative. BARBARA began her publishing career with Fawcett Books before moving to Israel. One year later she established the Barbara Rogan Literary Agency, which specialized in representing American and European publishers and agents for Hebrew-language rights. With a few years the agency had become the largest in the country, supplying over 60% of the large Israeli market for translated books. During this period Barbara served on the Board of Directors of the Jerusalem Book Fair. Her first novel, Changing States , was published simultaneously in England, the U.S., and Israel.

Oh my gosh, Virginia! I SO need to join you in this!
ReplyDeleteWonderful! Let's try and get a bunch of us working together. After all having support with your writing helps you improve, so having us supporting each other will help us get up and getting moving to lose those extra unwanted pounds. :)

I've tried several times in the past but never stuck with it. This time I'm going strong!
ReplyDeleteYou are so much braver than me, Virginia. Mayra, where are you going to fit even one more thing in, darlin? We're all nuts.

Ha, ha! You're right, Cheryl.
ReplyDeleteBut I swear to you, there's a direct link between writer's block and overeating. When I face a blank page, my first urge is to get up and check out the kitchen. I have to consciously stop myself and say, "Stop. That's writer's block taking over."

ReplyDeleteI'm all for your "crazy" idea. An avid runner, when I'm not writing, I'm running. Being in shape and at your weight goal makes you feel so much better about keeping your butt in your chair - trust me. I went from obese to thin nearly three years ago, and it was one of the best things I did for my writing!
ReplyDeleteGlad to have more of you joining me!
