Saying goodbye to 2010

When I looked at the calendar on my desk, I could hardly believe how swiftly this year has passed. There were so many days; 365 days to be precise. Yet still I didn't accomplish nearly all the projects I'd assigned for myself. In all my hurrying, when I finally came to terms with the strides I have made; as I knew it would happen, my four legged best friend sailed away to her heaven. The pain in my heart due to this loss nearly crushed me. Even so, as I look back on this year, I've come to know some wonderful people. It is these fabulous relationships that bring a smile to my face. Most of these people I came to know thanks to the internet. It also was the internet that opened my eyes to the gaining force of independent professionals. People whose dreams will not be dashed due to the establishment. I'm so happy to know that there are countless people out there like me. For this reason, as I look to the future, I will always do my best to encourage my indie friends in whatever way that I can. In closing for the year 2010, I would like to say, hold on to your dream and never give up until you've finally crossed over your finish line.

A retired Teacher writes a Series

While searching the internet for a good Indie story, I stumbled on a writer from Michigan by the name of Bob Morrow. After reading his bio then an excerpt from his book, I found myself admiring his creative spirit. Mr. Morrow is a retired teacher who is using his talent to write books. His series "The Big Sky" has three books and he's currently working on book four. Check out his work and judge for yourself, the stories appear to have a heartwarming quality. Link
