I want to add more to the post I wrote yesterday – some of that touched on procrastination. I had listened in to the class via our fiscal sponsor – Carole Dean of From the Heart Productions. (If you need sponsorship, or any kind of encouragement and direction, please reach out to her http://www.fromtheheartproductions.com. She … More I’D TELL YOU ABOUT HISTORY!
This might be one of my more serious blogs, not that they are not all important. So here goes. Over twelve years ago, I first climbed this hill. I was 46 years old and very ambitious and zealous about our American History, even more so now. Time is the one thing that has been in … More A REDEMPTION IN TIME – CALL TO ACTION!

Gettysburg is near and dear to my heart, and why I wrote a series that is based around it – Summer Ray. Today is July 2nd and the 2nd day of the battle. It’s the 158th Anniversary. In fact, my boyfriend and I published a photography book for the 150th anniversary. https://www.amazon.com/150th-Anniversary-Battle-Gettysburg-Photography/dp/1482583135 I have been … More THE STORY!
The last several months have been rough for me. It started out with me getting the Covid vaccinations. To each their own. If you don’t want to get vaccinated, it is your choice. I felt the need to get them because back in 2016, I became deathly ill with the flu and I didn’t want … More WORTH IT!
While away at Bethany Beach on a family vacation, it took a day or two for me to unwind from the project. I was still obsessing over it, when I should have been enjoying myself. Obsess is defined as, “reoccupy or fill the mind of (someone) continually, intrusively, and to a troubling extent.” I like … More JUST THE WRITER!
There are days when I feel so pressured into getting stuff done that I wonder if I am getting anything done at all! But then like the above picture, printing out the script and after doing a few re-writes, I am thrilled with the progress. I think of an ice sculpture and how magnificent they … More ENVISION IT!
Every Memorial Day since I started writing the story of Summer Ray, I have sat with the boys at the Gettysburg National Cemetery. I usually visit them throughout the year, but on Memorial Day with the American flags on every gravestone, it is just so much more patriotic. I wish the flags could stay up … More WE ARE AMERICAN PATRIOTS!
Upgrade the upgrades! What may have looked great last year, month or week, may not be so awesome today. It can be exhausting having to “raise (something) to a higher standard, in particular improve by adding or replacing components.” I love the definition to raise something to a higher standard. Branding, research, study, websites, bio’s, … More THAT EXTRA MILE!
“Enthusiasm” is defined as “intense and eager enjoyment, interest, or approval; zeal, great energy or enthusiasm in pursuit of a cause or an objective.” For those who have been on the project that has moved at a snails pace, it is easy to lose one’s enthusiasm. But the work still needs to be done. It … More MAKING THE SCRIPT BETTER!
