So the huge writing gig for Pearson officially began today. Yay! I'm checking off another item on my career bucket list: designing and writing cool educational content. And these activities will live in the student manuals as part of a massive ELL program set to roll out in China some time next year and then, eventually, to the rest of the world. Another added bonus - I'll finally collect a paycheck again.

I also signed up for NaNoWriMo because several friends threatened to "divorce" me if I didn't commit this year. By the end of the November, I may need to be committed. BUT I figured out that if I rise at 6 am instead of 7, I can sneak in a guaranteed hour of writing each day.

Now... to find that motivation. I think I saw it zipping down the street, but I'll engage my tractor beam to snare it and reinstall it in my brain.
