Work all day, dinner with friends–but it will happen! Because who wants to drop out on Day One, right?

Anyway, I know the procrastination thing too well. I love that this whole challenge exists, because it takes things like this to beat the pants off my natural procrastination streak. I know some days will be postcard days, but at least I’ll be getting it done.

I’m jumping into Letter Month with both feet–I got so much great stationery for Christmas and I can’t wait to put it to use.

Then you get peppers of hope along with the trial of finding that perfect job. Besides, the best challenges are ones you tweak around your abilities and circumstances, making them something uniquely awesome for yourself.

All the talk of the Month of Letters has actually made me a little sad– it adds onto the usual jobsearch anxiety, but I’ve had better luck with letters than with applications. It just feels worse because I send out job applications more or less without hope, but letters always carry it.

Steal away. The whole quote, just fyi, is put your characters in a tree, throw rocks at them, get them out of the tree. Story structure in ten seconds or less.
