Hello everybody!  I hope you guys are well.  I’ve been sorting through my folders and reminiscing with the pages that I have torn out of magazines and saved throughout the years.  Hair styles, exercise routines (which I have yet to do 🙂 ), recipes, DIY self-publishing tips, and crafts.  Some I kept and some I tossed because I really need to stop holding on to things and try to get some sense of organization among my papers and let’s face it, I’m not doing all of those exercises.  Among the pages that I kept though was this one:

This cartoon was featured in the Real Simple magazine, October 2003 issue.  As soon as I read it, I tore it out and showed my husband.  I told him, “Is that me or what?  That’s exactly what I do.”  I’m keeping this forever because it’s a mirror image of my writing persona.  This cartoon spoke volumes to me back then and it still does now.  I keep it for inspiration to do the opposite of it, plus it’s funny.

What inspires you to write?

Take good care all.

Until next time…
