Friday Morning FYI – 1/30/2015

Welcome to your Friday Morning FYI, my chance to share observations/wisdom/rants in short, easily consumed form.

This week’s FYI is inspired by a family member who put up a good fight, and is now in a better place (the best, actually):

Do not scoff when you hear “Life is precious” or “Life is short” or “Make every moment count” or “Seize the day” or any other phrase that reminds you your time on earth is limited. Because it is. Make the most of it.

 

Thanks for reading,

Friday Morning FYI – 1/23/2015

Welcome to your Friday Morning FYI, my chance to share observations/wisdom/rants in short, easily consumed form.

This week’s FYI is inspired by a query letter re-write I did just yesterday:

Once you’re sure you’ve figured something out, step back and look at it again. You may be surprised by what you discover.

 

Thanks for reading, and may we all have a blessed 2015.

Friday Morning FYI – 1/16/2015

Welcome to your Friday Morning FYI, my chance to share observations/wisdom/rants in short, easily consumed form.

This week’s FYI is inspired by how I feel when I spend every free moment I have writing/editing rather than wasting time on something unproductive:

Procrastination is the nemesis of creativity.

 

Thanks for reading, and may we all have a blessed 2015.

Friday Morning FYI – 1/9/2015

Welcome to your Friday Morning FYI, my chance to share observations/wisdom/rants in short, easily consumed form.

If you don’t know, there’s a twitter pitch event going on today. Using #SecretShop, you can pitch your novel (if  COMPLETE) to agents and editors. There are several of these that occur throughout the year using various tags (#PitMad, for instance). So this week’s FYI is dedicated to the people who will be pitching:

Opportunities come up all the time. Seize them, or someone else will.
 

Thanks for reading, and may we all have a blessed 2015.

Friday Morning FYI – 1/2/2015 (Happy New Year!)

Welcome to your Friday Morning FYI, my chance to share observations/wisdom/rants in short, easily consumed form.

This week’s FYI is inspired by the new year and the people I love:

A little understanding goes along way, and a little love goes even further. Remember that as the new year starts, and keep it all year long.
