I don't know about your schedule, but mine's pretty booked. But all work and no play makes Jack an axe waving maniac. I took last weekend off and went down south. We camped at an off road ranch with acres of trails. But it wasn't all riding. There was plenty of time to sit in the new lawn chairs and, well, just relax. I got some reading in. Spent some quality time with the Cowboy and the boys. And had some fun. This week, I'm going to the theatre after work with a buddy. Ph

I committed to working on three goals this quarter but I think I touched five so far. With mixed results. Goal #1 Learn about marketing. I'm finishing up a class on headlines. It's been interesting and I'm going to take it again next quarter to keep the information in my head. I'm also part of a marketing mastermind group that meets twice a month. I'm learning so much, it's crazy. Score - Good progress. Goal #2 Get healthy by eating better, controlling portion control, and w

Kind of figuratively and literally. I got sick a week ago Friday. I know when I'm coming down with something. I get grumpy, things make me cry, and all I want to eat is sugar. Well, typically, it passes with a good night's sleep. This time, not so much. It put me down and out for over a week and sent me scurrying to the doctor's office for drugs. But, I've also received three new 'projects' I've been expecting but hoped to be farther on the current WIP's that I have on my de

I had my accountability partner call this week and we went over our goals. I never feel like they're quite complete until after that talk, so here goes, in no specific order. #1 Finish my 2018 contracts. This one has been already on my radar as I'm on book deadline, have a set of developmental edits due this month, a set of copy edits due next week, and some marketing posts due to my publisher this month. #2 Learn more about Marketing. I've signed up for a copywriting class t

I've spent the week writing romance as my other author name. The book I just finished and sent to my editor was one I started in early 2017. I'm really glad to get it off my to do list and out in the world. But I'd forgotten how emotional romance is to write. I cried on Saturday when I wrote the black moment where there was no way the couple could be together. Then as they solved their issues in the last chapter, I cried again. Now that I've read through the story, I'm really

A Visit from St. Nicholas... 'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse; The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there... --Clement Clark Moore Happy holidays, Lynn #Goals #memories #family #LynnCollins #LynnCahoon

I'm in love with motivational quotes. I really like the meme's that focus on positive change. Like this - Or this... Einstein had it right with this... I live by this one... And finally, I'll leave you with this one. Until next week. Lynn #motivation #Lynn #LynnCahoon #Goals #LynnCollins
