Today Jamie asks us What do we wish to Accomplish? Well that is an easy one for me. I wish to finish one of my books. I have 2 ideas for nonfiction and 3 Nanowrimo novels. I would really like to finish one of them. Of course as you know the emphasis for me right now is the about my grandparents. Its what my trip to Ireland is all about. So actually that is such a big wish perhaps I might like to narrow it down to a smaller goal.
I have not finished reading all 220 letters that my grandparents wrote. So that is going to be my wish. My wish is that in this coming month I actually finish reading all of them. I have such a journey with these letters, first trying to type them all and then scanning them into my computer. First I decided to read and take notes on all of them but now I am just reading for the enjoyment. I am still taking notes when something jumps out at me like a location or persons name that I might want to look up when I am in Ireland. So of course it is taking quite some time and there are always other things pulling me away. That is going to end though, this will be my main focus for April and with all your wishes I know I will be able to do it.

ReplyDeleteSometimes I think we are a lot better at setting goals to accomplish than celebrating what we have already done...
ReplyDeleteSounds like your grandparents and the country their story is bringing you to has a lot of juicy inspiration in it, Kate !

As Kate wishes for herself, I wish for her also. It must be wonderful to be able to read your grandparents letters. I would love to have something like that from my grandparents. Enjoy your reading and the journey you are on.
ReplyDeleteYou are bursting with creativity, and Ireland is full of the creative literary spirit as well, there might be some sort of implosion when you arrive! ;-> As Kate wishes for herself, so I wish for her as well.

ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful wishes, may all your wishes come true.
ReplyDeleteWhat an exciting project! And it is helpful to have the Big wish and then break things down into the smaller, bite-sizable wishes. I cannot wait to see you published and i can point and say "i knew that book back when it was a wish!"
