Thank you

Tuesday, December 7th was such a refreshing & relaxing day. Sara is right - we should have a retreat every Tuesday! Thank you Kristy and all my fellow Advance Institute participants.

I am in the process of finishing up my online writing class: Writing & Publishing the Short Stuff by Christina Katz http://christinakatz.com/

It is a course designed for moms (non-moms like me can also take it!). Basically, it is designed for people who are busy. The instructor, Christina Katz, is encouraging and gives you deadlines. I am thinking of sending 2 pieces of writing to different magazines. In addition, I am going to take another course called Personal Essays that Get Published by another instructor in January. As I get to know who I am as a writer I realize more and more that I need structure and therefore truly benefit from taking classes to keep me on track.

Check out the site if you get a chance! Lynn Caggiano actually recommended the class to me at the Summer Retreat. We had a lovely conversation when everyone left on Sunday. I am grateful for her recommendation.

Happy Holidays Everyone!
