What are your your thoughts about prewriting? How much mental or actual editing do you do before or as you write? I found Becky's puzzle-like thoughts over at
Inside Out an interesting commentary along these lines. Thought maybe you might too. And btw, just in case you wanted to know, Becky is my daughter:)
I have been the recipient of several awards in the past few months, and have been terribly lax about mentioning them here. My apologies to the lovely blogger friends who bestowed these gifts upon me! I do appreciate them, and have no excuses to offer other than a busy schedule and distant family illnesses which has kept me on the phone more often than not.
The Happiness 101 Award was given to me by Raymonde, of
Everyday I Walk With You. You made me smile, Raymonde! Just like I do every time I visit your blog. You are a sweet friend, and perhaps some day this side of heaven we will meet and you can give me a tour of your stomping grounds. Or perhaps I can give you a tour across the pond here in the United States.
The Pursuing Your Dream Award was given to me by Maria at
Life's Lessons. Writing does allow me to pursue my dream, which also happens to be writing! Thank you, Maria, for your thoughtfulness. Your blog offers wonderful insight on the lessons we can learn from everyday living.
One more award to mention - I know, there's a great risk of getting a big head here. You will all just have to keep me humble. The
Prolific Blogger Award was given to me by Katt of
Katt's Komments. Thank you, Katt, for thinking of me! It was a sweet and unexpected surprise. You are a treasured blogging friend.
Now comes the fun part. I hereby offer these wonderful awards to all my followers. Without you, my blog would be boring and friendless, which would be pretty sad, I think.Thanks for your friendship and support.
Much love and blessings to you all,
Karen :)
