So it Friday, November 14, 2014. I have now been blogging consecutively for 45 days. It is hard to believe that I came up with that many different things to say. And for the past 13 days, I have also been working on my NaNoWriMo project as well. I am finding lots of things to say. But as I began to think about what to blog about today, I hit a wall. I had Writer's Block. I started and deleted several drafts before I began this one.
Yet the third time proved to work. That is this version. It is so hard sometimes to put thoughts on paper. I want to be sure I am using the right words to convey exactly the meaning I want. After all you can't hear my voice or see my facial expressions or hand motions to know what I really mean. All I have is my words. The right words convey exactly the meaning I want, while the wrong words can leave nothing. I just know I have a lot I want and need to share. At the same time, I am finding a desire to write that I never knew I had.
I always thought my sister was the one with the writing talent in the family. I was gifted in math. But as the years have gone by, I find myself spending more time writing or editing writing. As Dennis attended college, I edited his papers for him. I edit my children's homeschool work. I edit my blog and various posts on various forums I am on. I am surrounded by words. I can't escape them. They follow me where ever I go.
What are you surrounded by? Or what do you find yourself doing that you did not expect to be doing? I hope you will share with me!
