O, that I could finish a project and get it published!<br /><br />Thanks for the great post Alan, though I think I'm in need of the beeswax more than anything else...

I waver back and forth so frequently I feel like, while moderately good at many things, I will never be outstanding at ANYTHING. <br /><br />But I'm going to save this little piece... I think reading it every time I feel a little stir crazy for change might help me stay on track at least a little bit better :)Shaunahttp://thelongstairs.zerocut.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5813155461240201466.post-62545812164181803962010-02-03T14:39:14.526-05:002010-02-03T14:39:14.526-05:00Great post, Alan.

That is now an addendum to all goal lists.<br /><br />The brief called for a Fifth Doctor and Nyssa adventure, which, if produced, would be read by Peter Davison and Sarah Sutton. How cool would that be!? Well worth putting things on hold for a couple of days.<br /><br />Here's hoping they call me back and ask me to write the whole thing...Alan Gratzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15528858793775172285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5813155461240201466.post-63475025281601920422010-02-03T11:33:14.668-05:002010-02-03T11:33:14.668-05:00I came here from Twitter expecting nothing more th...I came here from Twitter expecting nothing more than an inspirational post about developing one's writing career, and what did I get? Unexpected Peter Davison! AWESOME.<br /><br />Personally, I think the moral of this essay is that you should stay focused on a single, sensible, related set of goals *except* if somebody gives you the chance to do anything related to DOCTOR WHO, in which case just go crazy, because DOCTOR WHO is the best thing ever.R.J.

I really wish you the best of luck with that -- what an awesome reason to take out the wax and listen to the sirens!<br /><br />Good luck on that one year plan, especially that last bit. Jane Yolen just lost forty pounds, and she's way older than us... this should somehow encourage us, but somehow just makes me cranky. I suppose that's some sort of motivation in itself...tanita✿davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01671822274852087499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5813155461240201466.post-30299133852157198932010-02-02T10:43:59.545-05:002010-02-02T10:43:59.545-05:00As important as it is to have goals, and to stay f...As important as it is to have goals, and to stay focused on them as much as possible, I think every now and then we HAVE to listen to the siren call. For our own sanity. We just can't let it pull us too far off course.Alan Gratzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15528858793775172285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5813155461240201466.post-48533240516527939442010-02-02T10:37:18.370-05:002010-02-02T10:37:18.370-05:00Thank you.

I ignore that siren call far too often, being rooted in duty a bit too deeply for my own good. <br /><br />It's actually inspiring to see another perspective. <br /><br />Of course, you can never tell anyone I said that. They'd never let you live it down.<br /><br />Bright Blessings and I think you may have made my already brilliant day.<br /><br />Ceja.Tavey Burgonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06571708866829633486noreply@blogger.com
