So, I transformed a strip of land (only five feet between the window and the fence) into a garden with flowers, vines, stepping stones (for my daughter and her buds) plus a bird feeder. This morning I watched while three house finches munched away while I worked.Pamela Hammondshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18267333699680840984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2967179224372520114.post-70702281181743332412010-07-07T08:26:41.380-05:002010-07-07T08:26:41.380-05:00To keep myself "on track," with my curre...To keep myself "on track," with my current WIP, I launched a blog, "A Novel Idea: 365 Days of Writing." The idea behind the blog was to make myself accountable to the daily writing process -- so I suppose my "ritual," is updating the blog. Every morning I make myself coffee at 6 a.m., and write a blog post about the previous day's writing accomplishments -- or lack thereof. <br /><br />When I'm writing, I have to have music. Michael Buble is a favorite and tends to bring out the best in my muse. <br /><br />If you want to follow my journey to a finished manuscript in 365 days you can visit me (and drop me a line?

This has helped me complete even the most mundane tasks in writing, like editing and formatting!<br />DonnaDonna Clarkhttp://www.becoming-site.comnoreply@blogger.com
