All I Have is Now

My friend Bethany has an active blog, not like my blog that has zero followers. I'm watching/listening to a DVD about Benjamin Franklin. In it there is a discussion about writing and having a plan. They are talking about a plan on two levels.

One level, having a plan for a piece that one is writing.

A second level, a plan for your life. This is where goals come in. If we want to write, not only should we create an outline for our piece, but we must plan to write. Thinking about writing and writing are not the same thing.

Back to Bethany, her blog is inspiring me to write. She now has a place to write at home, and a book completed. Me -- what can I say, I've been thinking about it!
