December already!

How can it be Decemeber already! Was it not just June or August?

How the year flies by and we can reflect on all the fun times and challenges we faced.
Now is the time to NOT give up, to get in a few more challenges before the New Year rings in.

I can't believe its not Fiction challenge, starts 5th December, so there is still time to plan for it. Its just a 3,000 word story in 7 days,

Peace and Goodwill Starts 17th, runs until christmas eve and a mere 2,500 words. It is a great way to get into the christmas and holiday cheer. Thinking of times past with friends family and feasts.

This all leads up to the New Year Novella which starts strangely enough on January 1st.

Whats the point of this post you wonder?
To keep writing, to keep trying, to keep creating, to keep being the writer you wish to be.

The holidays are a busy time, shopping, meeting friends, seeing relatives and always on the go.
BUT you do need some down time too, and during that down time you could write.
Writing is a great way to relieve stress, vent steam or just get those annoying characters out of your head.

Remember that rude lady, you know the one. She pushed that other lady out of the way to get the best ham from the freezer section, unneeded, and unkind, why not write a story and kill her off OR have her arrested. So many fun things you can do with those situations.

So take the time, join the challenges and let the holidays be joy, merry and bright.
