Love your About. The video by Ira Glass is super fantastic. I believe it’s touched your readers, especially those who may be thinking about quitting. My belief is that doing the work always nets results. I also believe in having passion for the work. If not, find different work. The work you’ve done so far, and the path you’re on so far is inspirational. It’s a pleasure reading your stuff. Highest and Best!

I simply put my desire for inspiration out in the Universe, and choices come. I also keep a notebook and a pen handy. The notebook has dividers in it. If an idea pops, I quickly make a note of it. You can also make a draft copy of an idea in WordPress. That way I’m never working hard. Flow is much more stress-free!

Hi Catherine,
SoundEagle agrees with tfaswift, and would like to congratulate you for being mature and eloquant at a young age.
At SoundEagle’s blog, you would find that we have much in common to the extent that the blog also serves as a kind of journal in which many styles and ideas can come into existence and be shared with others.
SoundEagle hopes that you continue to do very well and find fulfillment in whatever you enjoy doing and savouring, especially through being “Never Stationary Because we’re constantly evolving”.
Cheers!

Hi, love your changing styles, as my good friend Seeker says….”oh so young” :)
I like reading blogs by the under 20’s there is a refreshing innocence about life and experiences. Your writing is just that and I will return as for my experiences in IT please take down your email address and put up a form instead, this will help keep you safe online. But again thats your choice, I was 16 once…….a long time ago. :)

You’re very welcome. :-) The first time I got an Award, I didn’t know enough blogs to nominate either, so I had to go searching for some! But in doing so I actually met some nice new bloggers. Anyway, it’s up to you. Just thought I’d offer. :-)

Hi! I noticed that you invite writing prompts and guest post submissions. I would be ever so grateful if you might answer a question on my blog? I’ve set up a “blogging challenge” but it’s optional to do the whole challenge (5 questions total). Really, I’d be happy for people to answer just one or two questions for fun. If you’d be willing, you can come to my blog and browse through the Slider on my homepage to choose a question. I’d love your input because I follow your blog and I know you’re a very good writer. If you’re interested, this is my blog: http://tfaswift.wordpress.com/ The questions are in the Slider and there are 5 in total. :-)
And please feel free to invite me to answer anything on your blog as well. I’m always happy to contribute. I like a challenge!

So from reading your post about the whole challenge, I’m a little confused. Is the challenge just to comment on posts that we find interesting? And then I have to post them on my blog? What is a ping-back?

Hi catdiggedydog, sorry, I didn’t mean to confuse. You don’t need to do the whole challenge if you don’t want (which involves answering all 5 questions, doing a ping back etc).
If you want you can just choose any question/s you like and leave regular feedback on my blog. But if you *want* to, you can also copy and paste your answers here as a post on your own blog. Then if you just make a reference to my blog where you found the question (copy and paste the url for the post that you’re answering) that will be fine.
If know how to make the reference to my blog a clickable link then that will send me a ping back (like a reference). But you don’t have to do that. You can just leave regular feedback on my blog if you like. That would be great, and I’d really appreciate it. Any question/s you like. One would be enough. Thank you so much! :-)
