I started a new adventure today: a farmers’ market. I’ve never committed to such a venture before though I’ve thought about it. It’s the weekly commitment which made me leery. Honestly, I’m still there with those emotions. With the difficulty this week has been, I probably shouldn’t have come out today, but here I am. … Continue reading Jerome Farmers’ Market
I'm thinking a timer -- a digital one, not the one on my phone -- might be something I need to help me be more productive. If I know that I only have 5, 10, or 17 minutes, it's amazing how productive I can be. I just sit down and get it done. If I … Continue reading In addition
Dean Wesley Smith often repeats Mike Resnick’s saying. “If you aren’t earning $500 per day, you are not having a good day.” For the last month, I have really taken this advice to heart. I admit that I’ve modified it compared to the way he’s using it. I’ve been using it as a gauge for … Continue reading Values or just fake numbers
I did get words done last night after all. Woo hoo. Not as much as I would have liked, but it was a good number. Hint: it’s never as many words as I want to get done. I did get painting pictures all done today. I think I now have a process which will work. … Continue reading Finally cataloguing paintings
I’m going to have to break down and get a new publishing computer I think. Argh. It feels like I’m always buying computers. Our I’m going to need to rethink what I do have (which is probably what I’ll do). But, my Surface has been with me for a long time. At first, i thought … Continue reading Computers

A quick post written on my phone tonight. It was a good show day. I also got in some writing. I came home and my son and I made a shepherd’s pie with leftover mashed potatoes- we’d had that planned from the start. He did most of the cooking and I helped a little and … Continue reading Look at the time
Since yesterday's blog, I've been considering what motivates me and what I need to get over a few hurdles. I know that seeing numbers increasing quickly inspires me. Little numbers or slow going frustrates me. I like to close my rings. Goal achieved trophies are cool, but little motivational "you did it, now keep going" … Continue reading Knowledge with gauges
I woke this morning with an old project on my mind. As I was thinking about a direction I could take with it, it got my braining thinking about business. Once I was on that tangent, I was off. I spent a lot of the day thinking about the structure of everything I have going … Continue reading Tangents
I wanted to write about the planning I'd been doing on Friday, but that seems to not be happening today. When I looked at the notes I took, the ones I'd spent all afternoon writing, it all felt so blasé. I sat there staring at some of my notes wondering why I had taken them. … Continue reading Blasé planning and bite-sized segments
