Two very good questions from Seven Steps on the Writer’s Path:

Where do I want my path to lead me?

Will this activity or decision or lack of activity lead to that result for me?

Asking these two questions on a regular basis is a wonderful way to cut through all the clutter and clarify decisions. (Works for non-writers, too!)
Gems like that make Seven Steps one of my most frequently referred to books.

In my continued efforts to get out more, do more creative things, and have fun with kids I took more pictures this morning and have organized my Flickr uploads into sets. Today’s are in the set called Kids. (Yesterday’s are in the set called River)

Last but not least, Miss Lonely Hearts is shipping from Amazon! I don’t know if it’s in stores yet, so please let me know if you see it. Nice that it’s available in time for holiday weekend reading.
