21 More Reasons for Not Posting?  But I Like to Post!

It’s Linda today.  The Boss recently provided 21 reasons [excuses, grumbles] about not posting, not having the motivation or focus.  So, the Triple Threat Investigation Agency ensemble—Rey, JJ, and I—decided we’d take turns with the same theme.

The thing is, I don’t mind posting, but then I do blog regularly.  Usually, I can think of some matter to write about.  Today, the theme’s slightly different; here are things 21 things I like doing personally and professionally (in no specific order).  This, of course, garnered me a roll of the eyes, a “like really, Lindy-Loo?”, and one of those water-buffalo snorts from Rey.  She’s okay with it now, though, since I reminded her she’d be submitting a list next week and we’d see how well she’ll do.

1. 1. blogging (doing wine and food reviews in particular)
   2. surfing (a fairly recent new love)
   3. walking and playing with Piggaletto
   4. volunteering at the homeless shelter
   5. jogging / running / trekking
   6. being a P.I. (except when having a gun jammed in my face)
   7. friends and, in particular, my BFF Rey
   8. niggling my BFF Rey (he-he)
   9. lounging in the yard by our not-yet-up-and-running pool and reading a good book
   10. boating / sailing
   11. trying new dishes (getting to really enjoy cooking)
   12. learning new things
   13. outings and luaus
   14. having me time / being alone
   15. meditating / reflecting
   16. discovering new local music / artists
   17. singing in the shower
   18. enjoying that first steaming, fragrant cup of coffee in the morning (so-o goo-ood)
   19. embracing good health
   20. having a nothing-to-complain about life
   21. taking on challenges.

Have a wonderful weekend!

I'm primarily a writer of fiction and blog posts, and a sometimes editor and proofreader of books, manuals, and film/television scripts. Fact-checking and researching, organizing and coordinating are skills and joys (I enjoy playing detective and developing structure). My fiction audience: lovers of female-sleuth mysteries. My genres of preference: mysteries (needless to say), women’s fiction, informative and helpful “affirmative” non-fiction. So-o, here I am, staring up a new blog for aspiring and established e-Book writers. The plan: to share the (long) journey of getting to this stage, and share "learnings" and "teachings". There's a lot I hope to accomplish with this blog, but it may be a while before that happens as there's a lot on the ol' plate - taking care of Mom, working full-time, and attempting to get another book in the Triple Threat Investigation Agency series written (never mind blog postings and other writing projects). It's very challenging and it's all good. As I like to say: teeny focused baby steps are just as effective as long forceful strides. It may take a little longer, but we will get there.
