Encouragement from a fellow writer!

Some of my writer-buddies and I have been kind of blue lately. If you have too, read this from LaConnie Taylor-Jones:

Authors, we are sixteen days away from a New Year. Forget the challenges you grappled with in 2009. Instead, concentrate on the opportunities that await you in 2010. Wrap yourselves in your dreams. Constantly remind yourselves that you will not respond to failure. Continue to bob (adversity) and weave (the threads). In the end, a custom-designed quilt (your story) will emerge.

Go here to read the rest (and lots of other uplifting & interesting info. Blogging in Black is looking great lately!). It's balm for a writer's soul!
