Comment on The Happiness Project: Day 3

Enjoy that last year at home w/K, and good luck transitioning into the empty nest. Even those of us who thought we were prepared find it challenging to navigate. You'll get used to it, and, knowing you, you'll thrive with all the time you'll find for writing. Or, perhaps, for additional trips to Vegas . . .

Ah, yes, the good ole days. It's almost like chicken noodle soup, isn't it? Loved this post; transported me right back to old haunts of my own.

Excellent deja vu here! I went back to my hometown for a church youth group reunion in July. It was as if 50 years had vanished as, after church, I ditched my shoes and padded silently back and forth across the linoleum as we took down the display tables and packed away our memories. In some ways, those of us who were there rediscovered ourselves and felt empowered to move on.
Enjoyed your persepective!

Thanks, Ericca! That's something I've worked on - trying to be authentic with my writing, so that I can use bits and pieces of reality to make my fiction believable.

Eliza was great - if you ever get a chance to hear her talk, go. She talked about using the hero in Tangled as a character card for your hero. She used lines from the movie as guidelines, like "I don't do back story" and scenes from it, such as having your hero rush to the heroine's rescue, then get bonked (figuratively or physically) on the head, and having your hero love so deeply that he's willing to die for your heroine. She had so many great thoughts, and an entertaining way of sharing them.

I've been to a few conferences - some good, some not so good, but I've always learned from them and I've met some great people at conferences.

Thanks for stopping by!
