Blogging Around

I was thinking about some great blog posts last night I could do, but then I thought wait a minute . . . I'm a guest blogger today on Karen Cioffi's blog today. So instead of sharing some of my thought here today, I'm going to link you over to my guest blog, Does Marketing Really Matter with VS Grenier at Writing for Children. In this guest blog you'll learn about my trials of marketing my picture book, Babysitting SugarPaw while being pregnant. There are lots of tips and inspiration. Okay, at least I think there is. LOL. I hope you enjoy it and please leave a comment. I'm going to be popping in throughout the day to answer any questions, too. And please be sure to stop by tomorrow for Article Wed. I have a great blog post to share with you. It's one you're not going to want to miss.

Get Up & Get Moving: Week 9

Well, this past week was another busy week at my house. I somehow hurt my rib cage on which pretty much kept me from doing any exercising. Not sure what I did or even how it happened, but it is pretty sore. My baby girl isn’t happy mommy can’t carry her around all day because it hurts too much. I’m hoping after another week of resting, I’ll be back up and moving around in less to no pain.

Get Up & Get Moving: Week 10

Back-to-school is here at my house. The kids go back this coming Wednesday. Hard to believe the summer is over already. I’m hoping with a few hours a day with only one child at home, I’ll be able to really tackle my weight lose goal with more exercise. It’s been raining cat and dogs here the last couple of days. This means my trusted old treadmill has been getting as much of a workout as I have. LOL. And that brings me to my tip this week. With colder weather around the corner, it may be harder to get out walking or running. I know where I live there are two times a year where getting outside to get exercise is hard. Late summer and wintertime. It is either too hot or too cold. I’m sure a lot of you know what I mean. That’s when I break out the workout videos or get on my treadmill. What has been a great motivator for me to get on the treadmill is catching up on my favorite shows. I tell myself the only way I can watch the latest episode of Lie To Me or Haven is if I ho...

12 Nuggets of Writing Wisdom

by Shery Ma Belle Arrieta-Russ 1. Work hard to become competent. Neil Gaiman said, "There's no magic formula. To become a competent writer, you  write until you start to sound like you, and then you keep on writing. Finish  things you start. Get better." 2. View life from different perspectives. Douglas Clegg said, "Get out and live and travel and see the world from  perspectives other than the one with which you've been saddled. Youth doesn't  last very long, and it might be better to participate in life awhile before  writing from it." 3. Write one page at a time. John Steinbeck said, "When I face the desolate impossibility of writing 500 pages,  a sick sense of failure falls on me and I know I can never do it. This happens  every time. Then gradually I write one page and then another. One day's work is  all I can permit myself to contemplate and I eliminate the possibility of ever  finishing." 4. Strive for vigorous writi...
