I am so smart! I am so smart! SMRT
Oct. 17th, 2010 10:44 pmAnd why, you may ask, am I feeling so full of myself this evening?
Well, for starters, my inspired choice to use butternut squash instead of sweet potatoes in my world-famous Southwest Sweet Potato Chickpea Delight was an excellent one.
But the real reason I'm bursting with a sense of triumph is that in today's writing group session, I achieved something I very rarely accomplish.
I created a moment on the page that I loved so much I wanted to pump my fist and say, "Yes!"
If you're a writer, and I know that most of my readers are, then you know that experiences such as this are very few and far between. So of course, when they do happen you want to hold tight and milk them for all that they're worth. And also, record them on your blog so you have a reminder of why you bother on the days when things aren't going so well.
And on that note, I think it's almost time for bed.
