Quote of the Day: How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world. Anne Frank
And, here we are at the first Wednesday of the month, once again, and it is Insecure Writer’s Support Group (IWSG) day. Visit the website for more information, learn about a writing contest, join, or find more blogs to read and follow. Also, visit Alex J. Cavanaugh, the founder of IWSG.
Where did the time go? September is the new year for me, the start of another school year, and my birthday. What will this new year bring? What adventures await my boys? What new experiences are in store for me, and will I meet my goals as a writer and teacher? Having goals is usually helpful when we enter a new year. My plan is to do the edits on the play I’m writing, Grace Notes: Piano Bench Confessions, and have another reading of it this fall. I also plan to start on a new project. In addition, I’m growing my piano studio and theatre classes for kids. Both are great creative outlets for me as well as the students. And, as Anne Frank says in the above quote, we all have the opportunity, right now, to make the world a better place.
Go. Create. Inspire!
Journaling Prompt: What are your goals, creative or otherwise, for this year, and beyond?
Wow! Busy, busy. It has to lead somewhere 🙂
Anna from Elements of Writing
Thanks, Anna. It will.
Yes sounds very busy, great post. Best of Luck.
Juneta Writer’s Gambit
Thanks, Juneta. You, too!
I kept wanting to post that this is the August IWSG post. Nope! September is still so hot around here, it’s hard to think of fall just yet.
How wonderful you’re writing a play! That sounds so cool. I have zero experience with that, though I’ve read a few plays for research. Have a wonderful and productive month.
Thanks, Stephanie. I was shocked that I had to flip the calendar, too!
Good luck with all your plans. I can’t believe how fast the year has gone. And that it’s already September. If anything, my greatest goal is to finish my YA supernatural WIP rewrites, have it beta read and edited. Ready for an open submission by December. Time to bite the debut novel submission bullet ?
Best of luck to you, Lidy. You can do it!
Great aspirations for the new year!
Thanks, Alex!
September did sneak up on us! How wonderful you’re growing your studio. Fantastic aspirations! Have a lovely weekend. 🙂
That is a great quote. Congratulations on growing your piano studio. You are amazing! All the best with your goals.
Mary, love Anne Frank, and what a quote to hang nearby as the year gets started off! Excited to see what the year holds for us all. Hugs!
Hugs back to you, Roxane. Each year has new adventures.
That’s a lot of goals. And a great quote from Anne Frank. I also think of September as the beginning of the year, sort of, even though it isn’t my birthday.
Thanks, Ula. I hope you meet your new year’s goals, as well.
