artambrosia Wow, you sound totally dedicated AND organized. I've got the dedication I think, but organization? Not so much. lol. They call me a pantser because I write by the seat of my pants instead of outlining. I just do it all in my head way ahead of time. Then it...

artambrosia The people at Script Frenzy do training for all of that. It's really great. I was going to do it one year, but life got in the way, lol. I think I had a lot of work that month. Anyway, check out the tutorials; they're really helpful.

artambrosia That's awesome that you write every day. I haven't been that disciplined until this NaNo rolled around. I have two previous NaNo novels that need editing, and another that I just sat down and wrote that needs major work. I do have trouble sometimes because I'm...

artambrosia Thank you. I'm sorry you didn't have a good experience. There's always next year. I know sometimes motivation is a real issue. I'm having trouble motivating with my paying work right now. Not good. You know, Script Frenzy starts in April. Maybe that's your...

artambrosia I've changed email accounts twice. Sometimes it's the only way. I'm thinking of doing it again - going back to one of the older accounts.

Hi friends, Intuition is an ability to recognize our inner voice. Many people don’t have the ability. Some are giving much importance to their inner voice but some do not know the same. In other words many people don’t know...

artambrosia You make a good point about the dreams. I had forgotten about that. I agree that we should be grateful to have this ability, but I think more people have it than tap into it. They just brush it off or whatever. Too bad.

artambrosia A great place to go is the alchol beverage stores. They usually have a day when they allow people to come and get boxes. For us it's Tuesdays. You just have to ask. They're great two because they have those dividers in them you can use to pack you glasses or...

artambrosia I've never used an eye mask, although I do often cover my eyes. I sleep with my eyes partially open sometimes (I'm told) so light will wake me up. An eye mask would be nice I think. I may have to try it.

artambrosia I think sometimes it is absolutely necessary, as in the case of crimes. But sometimes, I think punishment poorly applied just demoralizes and does more harm than good. For instance. Last night, my daughter's basketball team was winning their game, but because...
