...on writing

Ok, so I have another passion... writing. All my life I have written on and off, but I have never really put much effort into it. I have decided to change that and I have enrolled in a course for "Writing for Children" and perhaps I will start taking it a little more seriously.

There are so many books I'd love to write, and of course, get published... fantasy, Arthurian Legend, picture books for children, and I'd love to take some of my poetry and put some of my own artwork with it too.

But alas, time is always at a premium... could I just sit and write and forget everything else... while this would be an ideal situation, it is not always practical... I suffer from TMIS (too many ideas syndrome) and I can't stick to any one thing long enough to make it my sole focus. But there is something to be said for TMIS, and that is that I am never bored and can reach towards any corner of my house, close my eyes and pick something to do for that day, lol!

My goal in life is to fulfill as many of my passions as I can... anything I have always wanted to do, I have been trying to do, and so far I have been doing pretty well at achieving most of the things that are within my own control and reach.

So, if you have a passion... go for it. Life is way too short to not to at least try and enjoy and use what talents you have been fortunate enough to have been given...
