Every step in the journey of life is special. I am so thankful to my children who encourage me everyday to tell them a story or help them write their own story. My daughter wrote a poem about a rusty old nail and I had discouraged her not to enter it in a contest, but she did anyway and she won with that poem. That was huge life lesson for me that I should never discourage my children if they are being creative and expressive with the their writing I should let them be free. As a writer I don't want to be stiffled, so I vowed to give them the same freedom that I request. Children show us and teach us so many things. My son teaches me everyday to love life, because we don't know what tomorrow will be. Thank you both so much.
Everyday is a new day and a new journey in life. As a writer I can honestly say that there are days that I just want to climb back in the bed with the covers over my head and hope that the next great idea will float under the covers, but those days are few and far between. Any time I attend a writers' conference or workshop I am immediately inspired and I am so thankful for that. I love the networking and sitting with like minds, the creative juices just start flowing. As a writer I have learned that inspiration is everywhere and where the networking is nice, it is also nice to step back in life and to write about the little steps along the journey as well as the really big ones.

The Clarksville Writers' Conference was wonderful this year. I think it was almost better, because I didn't know most of the presenters. At first, I had reservations because I didn't know the presenters, but I am really glad that I decided to attend. It was wonderful. I can't wait until next year's conference.
