Since today is only the first day of the 2026 challenge for survival, please forgive me if I’ve yet to even look toward any possible challenges waiting for us, you, or myself…
Let’s just start with some cookies if that’s alright…
I’ve missed you all so much, and I’ve been slacking with the cookies… hugs.
For me, both as a writer and a human being, my biggest challenge is being seen… by anyone!
You may have noticed that I call it a challenge and not a problem or an impenetrable obstacle, because the only thing that has to be tackled is timing… the right place to be, needs to be achieved at just the right moment in time! Yes, I used that word twice in the same sentence. I want to make sure you get my meaning here. Time, in all sense of the word, moves, whether it feels slow or fast! I used it once and by the end of the sentence, it was there again! It simply followed me as I wrote out the thought.
Being in the right place at the right time, is the only safe way to jump onto this moving bus without getting run over by it, or simply left behind at the station. There are so so many talented souls everywhere I look… some quite successful while others never catch the bus. Does it mean that one is better than the other or tried harder… sometimes it can play a part in things, but most often it’s no more than timing!
While I admit that Brutus will take a bit more work for me, as I have never written an actual Novel… I wrote Tilly in a day! God’s given me the content, the dreams, the imagination and the tenacity to get it done… my challenge is not in the creation and journey of writing something, it’s in getting it where it’s meant to be… in your hands…
And this is why I said that it is a challenge but not an impenetrable obstacle… I will walk by faith, stepping where my heavenly Father steps… no need for fear of things here… it’s all about His timing!
