It is always your next move. Napoleon Hill

Walk in the park next to Green River.

A ride on the ferry in the San Juan’s in October to see Mt. Baker.

A master of photography hard at work.

A photo to remember at the arboretum.

Walking on Cannon Beach.

Travelling is fun.

My next move will be …

To see more, do more.

Thanks Napoleon…     can I call you Napoleon?

With my 1st Ping I offer: Poetry about Chaos Around Us

It is better to have confusion and chaos
This keeps one thinking not about "I" and
instead "all of us"

Better to have a non candy bar rocky road,
This keeps you in the high creativity mode.

Sadly the sickness can be wished on no one
dear
This causes mostly worry and even worse fear.

So capture the moments when you can.
10 minutes at a time sometimes has to be the
plan.

What I Learned Today from Dr. Patricia Nan Anderson About Writing a Book

What I learned today about writing my book as I called in to the weekly teleconference with Dr. Patricia Nan Anderson.

Dr. Pat goes through the rules of writing, her #10 Mistake to avoid was:

·        Keep writing… don’t stop.

o   Don’t stop to research.

o   Don’t stop to re-read more than one page back.

o   Don’t stop for grammar or spelling.

o   Don’t stop.

o   Don’t get distracted with details which can bog the writing down.

·        Get it done.  Write, write, write.

Progress over perfection is the primary goal.  (ok, those are my words as I try to include P Words) J

It was good a good call this week as I was able to ask extra questions and get personal feedback.

If you are ready to write a book  (and I know you are) maybe it’s time for you to sneak onto the call?

www.indeedanudge.com  OK, you don’t have to sneak.  The number is public on her website… and everyone is welcome to join.

So I continue pounding the keys writing the book of the century … but this week will try something new.  I am going to try writing with my mouth.

Don’t you have to wonder what the heck that means?  I will keep you posted.

Hope to catch you on next Thursday’s www.ineedanudge.com teleconference call with Dr. Patricia Nan Anderson.

New Posterous so New Header so new Mission Impossible for Haystack Rock, Cannon Beach, OR

WOW backwards.

So now Posterous is upscaling with bells and whistles?

Very nice Mr. Posterous!  Thanks from me.

Thus I included a new header.

Here is my thought for the day:

If it is dark, and it begins to storm.

What is the next best thing to do?

·        Run and hide?

·        Do nothing?

·        Grab a camera … stand in the rain and attempt to capture the moment?

Yep, that’s what I did…. And so the moment is captured.

If only the thunder came first to warn us of impending lightning!

Timing can be everything in life  (as 100 digital snapshots which were half a second too late proved)

Here is mission impossible:

Haystack Rock in Cannon Beach with a lightning storm over top.

Capturing the lightning / Haystack Rock… on just the right tide….. what a thought.

Here is Haystack Rock…

…………..now use your imagination and put the lightning over top.

One of my favorite places to be.

What’s yours?
