It won't happen often, I promise, but today I thought I would copy and paste what I wrote for my 365 project picture on Flickr. Since today is my blog's self-designated topic of Writing Wednesday - and the subject matter for the photo fits that theme, I thought it was suitable.
While I do not plan to limit my 365 photo project to these prompts, I am enjoying Katrina Kennedy's January list of helpful suggestions. Today's prompt is New Beginnings - and here is my response.
A new year - a new lease on life.Since kindergarten, I have always considered myselffortunate to celebrate two "new year" celebrations: January 1st and the First Day of School. I supposed I was destined to become ateacher, as my most favorite shopping day of the year is mid-July when I stockup on school supplies.
That euphoria has now made its way into my hobby life aswell. Over the past few years I havediscovered a love of writing - and while my preferred method is clicking on theQWERTY keyboard, there is something that draws me to the "oldfashioned" method of writing in beautiful journals with decorative pens onthe blank page. I have numerous journalswaiting for me to put pen to paper - either as notes for future NaNoWriMo stories,or as quotes from treasured reading, or as family stories to preserve for thenext generation.
There is such excitement about the blank page - and all thepotential that it holds; and at the same time there is such fear at marring thepristine page with dribble. This year Idon't want that fear to keep me from realizing the dream of becoming awriter. I want to write - and imagine -and document. This is indeed a newbeginning to a fresh start in this second half of life.
