back to basics

I haven’t forgotten I owe you an update on MyMeWriMo. I’m not attempting to tease you. There will be no grand reveal: Surprise! I wrote a whole book in one month, and I’m searching for an agent now!

Not. But I did make progress and have some interesting revelations to share. I’ll get to that later this week.

First, I want to reassess why I’m even here, posting regular updates on this blog, in the first place. I relaunched the blog in May, with the tag line “under the MAC,” to document my journey as a writer and my quest to write a book. I wanted to blog with a purpose– to reveal my authentic voice, the many layers that make up the writer and woman. I also aspired to be mildly entertaining and to show you the ”real me” without making you gag from TMI.

As I dug deeper and deeper into my story, I knew I would encounter periods of creative flow and periods of stagnation. I would confront my angels and my demons. This blog is where I would share some of what of learned, my lessons and my insights, with you.

And, I think for the most part, I’ve done that.

I dance between my inner and my outer world… my desire to perform… my desire to look within. It’s all about balance… caring for mind, body and spirit. It’s about learning to feel whole, living this life to the full, with a sense of meaning and purpose.

So in the new year, I’ve reconnected with my commitment to the blog, to the book and to you, my dear readers and friends. I thank you for joining me on my journey, drawing your own conclusions/inspiration/entertainment from my hopefully not-so-random musings.

Do you have a vision for the new year? Share them with me! I’m not scared to pull out my pom poms and do a little cheer.

You can leave a response, or trackback from your own site.

    Angie — WHAT.AWESOME.NEWS. that you wrote a book in a month! Way to go and good luck in finding your agent. I’ll be starting that same journey in about two weeks.

    Hey Jane! Oh I wish I had written a book in a month. That first paragraph was punctuated with sarcasm. I’m making progress though. Good luck with your writing endeavors as well. As I continue with my journey, I’ll be sure to share my ups and downs and insights on the blog.
