I hope that everyone was able to take time this week to gather with those near and dear to them and to take some time out of their busy lives to reflect on things for which they are thankful.
My Thanksgiving gathering was much smaller than usual this year due to the fact that several family members were traveling to visit other relatives. In spite of fewer gathered at the table, it was a wonderful day, with lots of laughter and thanks being given.
Last week one of my writer’s groups had a fun brainstorming session where we just began a list of things for which we are thankful as writers. Some were fun, some were serious, and some were silly, but I have a few listed here….
- Librarians
- Spellcheck
- Thesauruses
- Lap tops
- Teachers
- Beta Readers
- Starbucks
- Baby-sitters
- Critiques
- Writer’s Groups
- Cell phones
- Amazon
- Chocolate
- Early mornings
- Late evenings
- Book bloggers
- Book Shops
- Social Media
- Editors
- Readers
Wishing everyone days filled with things for which to be thankful, and the observation skills to notice them!
