End of Year Summary 2011

I am looking back over what I accomplished last year and sometimes I feel a little down. I do not have a novel published. I have a few things in my home life that aren't exactly how I want them, though I have no complaints with my husband. He is so sweet and loving. I enjoy my job but it isn't my dream job. But as I went through everything I have accomplished I realized that even in my week to week work I got a lot more accomplished than I realized.

  1. Wow Em. That's cool. I was looking at the LTUE site after getting their email and noticed they have writing competitions. Did you know that? The deadline is tomorrow for submissions, so I know it's too late for this year's competition. What about next year? You could enter... :)

  2. I have entered in years past. I thought about entering this year but instead entered in a variety of other contests.
