Words from a Reader

The “Writing Life Stories” e-mails I receive are such treasures. As soon as I see there is one in my inbox, I read it immediately. I look forward to them and never know how they will touch me. They can be interesting, informative, humorous, and/or touching.

2014 -- What will you accomplish this year?

Hi Blogging Friends,
Happy New Year to all of you. I hope this year you fulfill your goals and  accomplishments – submit for the first time, publish your first piece, publish that book you have been working on, join a writer’s group, take a writing class, read that book you have been wanting to read, start a book club, teach a class, mentor a student, learn to meditate, and begin to journal every day.

This is on the coast of New Brunswick and my goal is to get back there someday.


You can read my thoughts on the new year at www.readwave.com Search for my name and you will see several pieces I’ve posted there. Tonight’s is No Denial in 2014.

You are the best and I wish for you the best. Thanks for reading my blog.

  1. I am a reader these days, not a writer, except for my blog. What I accomplish this year is to read even more books, and good ones, I hope! :-)

  2. I want to read more this year. I have been hoarding books for when I have time to read more.
    I plan to take the time to read these books and enjoy them.

  3. I've put together a collection of short stories and a poetry chapbook that I hope to publish this year. I have another idea for a poetry chapbook that I may also write this year. I plan to blog at least once aweek, and write a new poem or short story at least once a month. I hope you have a happy New Year.

  4. Good for you, Abbie. You seem to have much self discipline about your writing. I hope to publish a poetry book and a book of short stories with another writer this year. Have a great year, Abbie.

    I hope you are staying warm during this cold weather.
    I wish you and all of our writer friends a lot of success with their work in 2014!
    I've registered for the Blue Ridge Writer's Conference and look forward to taking your poetry workshop.

  6. Brenda, we have had some cold weather this week and I hope you and Blanche have been warm and toasty.
    I have, but my well acted up today and I was without water for awhile.
    I look forward to seeing you at the Blue Ridge Writer's Conference. This is one of my favorite writing events each year. I look forward to speaking there in April.

  7. I'm going to write my novel, one page at a time...better than keeping all those thoughts in my head, LOL! Looking forward to participating in more local writing workshops as well. Happy New Year!
