Though my blog, it is my wish to be a source of inspiration and information for beginning writers, as I have been so greatly inspired this past year (2009) through the blogs of so many newly contracted/published writers and aspiring writers alike. <br /><br />I'm so looking forward to reading your book, Irene (even if I don't win this contest)! :)Crystalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09968456960528987538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5375684657483536810.post-38595152921669446522010-01-07T20:06:39.226-06:002010-01-07T20:06:39.226-06:00Thank you La Belette Rouge for sharing your contes...Thank you La Belette Rouge for sharing your contest with us. I have not heard of your book before, but it sounds interesting. I have also never thought to pick a word "for the year", but I think it is a fantastic idea...one I will now adopt as my own. This is a big year for me. A charity project that has taken years (just in my afraid little mind) to come into fruition has finally been started. I have pledged to wear RED shoes everyday for the entire year, taking pledges & donations of support. All of the monies will go to support Rwandan street children. Seven days in, it has been a breeze, but I am sure that it will become challenging by say....June! Anyway, after pondering, I decided my word would be <br />ENDORSE. By definition this means to approve, support or sustain. As women, we do that for so very many people in our lives, from our children to politicians. I think that this is the year and time to ENDORSE yourself! Approve, support and sustain you, your essential essence of why you are here and who you were meant to be. Thanks for sharing your idea, and I wish you a lovely new year! <br />Sheri~Red Shoes for Rwandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07377116425602710993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5375684657483536810.post-58596963744590578842010-01-07T09:22:03.249-06:002010-01-07T09:22:03.249-06:00My word for 2010 is Grace... :-]
