That Self-Discipline Thing

My two oldest kids go to an excellent Karate studio where they learn about a new value each month, and memorize scriptures to strengthen them. This month's theme is self-discipline. My kids had to fill out a chart for a week in which they needed to do things like chores and karate practice, as well as keeping a positive attitude, and respecting family members.



If my kids are working to improve themselves, I figure I should be doing it along with them. When it comes to writing, I'm lucky to have a lot of support. Even though I tend to let self-doubt get in the way a lot, I know there are many opportunities to battle the blues.

One such awesome friend shared this challenge with me, and I've decided to take part. My goal is to write one thousand words Monday-Friday. I've missed today because of other blogging commitments, but I'm confident I can make it up tomorrow.



I hope you'll all take a look at the Ruby Slipper Sisterhood challenge and make your own goals. Happy writing!

Don't prepare more for a game than you do for a practice. If you don't tape up for practice, don't do it for games. You will naturally take games more seriously than practice. However, you don't need to start panicking over a game by overpreparing. Have a consistent and calm routine.satta king

Before picking a Forex dealer, guarantee that your intermediary is joined with some administrative body. These associations help forestall forex extortion by looking out for illicit and exploitative conduct in its individuals, just as by giving intervention and assertion benefits on account of a debate. A portion of these associations will likewise offer arrangements of known fake specialists with the goal that you can evade them. Satta King

Did I get you with that click-bait title? I always fall for those dang things. Anyway, this is a regularly (or not so regularly in my case) scheduled update. First and foremost I'd like to draw your attention to a fancy new box on the right-hand side. Yes, I'm starting a newsletter. As of now it won't be more than once a month. I'd love it if you signed up! And oh yeah: There will be a free novella if you sign up! Eventually, because I'm still working on it. Quality, folks. Second, I've started a review group on Facebook. If you like receive free copies of my books in exchange for a review, please contact me! (email: author.jabennett @ gmail.com) Third, I've update my books tab with links, so check that out too if you get a chance. Until next time!

The Noveling Journey

Image
cr: Diter Laskowski This past weekend I spent 10+ hours in a minivan with four small children. One of those children is only eighteen months old. On top of being squirmy, said child had started antibiotics for an ear infection only the day before. He can also scream very loud. As one must do with such an experience, I tried to find the positive. It was either that or breakdown and sob which wouldn't do anyone good. What I came to realize in the anxiety to and from my destination, was that I had been going about noveling all wrong. And trust me, it wasn't a negative thought. One thing I know about road trips is that if I want to get somewhere, I have to keep going. Stopping at Buc-ee's is really fun. It's great to stretch my legs and buy myself some beaver nuggets, but it's not going to get me anywhere. The longer I hang out at Buc-ee's, the later I'll show up. Writing is the same. Not for everyone, but for me it is. Social media is great. I actua...
