Well, it certainly is late!! Therefore, this is going to be a fairly short post. I don’t even know why I’m still awake. No particular reason. I really should be in bed, like the rest of my family. But, it sure is nice and quiet. Somehow I just completely lost track of the time. I even had a rough day and should have been asleep hours ago. Now this will throw off my whole day tomorrow. Huh. Maybe I just crave the calm and peacefulness that comes in the night. Everything’s at rest, silent and safe. I recently read somewhere, I can’t remember where, that it’s common for writers to be up during the middle of the night. That many find it the perfect time for writing and that most of their best work comes at night.

Not that I officially see myself as a “writer”…yet. I certainly feel at home and  free when I’m writing. But, I don’t know if that actually makes me a “writer” or not. When does someone get to call themselves a “writer”? Do you have to have something published first? Is there some right of passage? Or can I just say I’m a “writer” whenever I feel like it? I don’t know if I’ve earned that title yet.  I know that my writing has definitely slipped some, since back in my university days. You just need to re-read the last few sentences to find grammatical errors! Although, I’m not really sure if grammar matters all that much in this type of writing. It’s not like I’m going to be graded on my blog posts or something. It’s just that, back when I was in university, I had to write papers so often that it kept me on my toes. I had to actually pay attention to details like grammar. Also, I had a great editor, aka my Momma 👵🏼! However, now I feel like I’ve forgotten so many things, things that used to just come by rote; like, should that just have been a coma instead of a semi-colan? Is semi-colan supposed to have a dash or is it actually just one word? Should I have inserted a coma up there before the word “but” instead of starting a sentence with the word “but”? Should that question mark be in the quotation marks or after it, as I put it?  See? So many errors grammatically. Does it matter though? It’s not like this is going to be published and I need to get an editor or something. And, if I ever do need an editor, in addition to my Momma👵🏼, I would ask my on-line friend, author and editor Rebecca Hamilton – she has definitely earned that “writer” title I so crave, actually, she’s not just a “writer”, she’s an “author” which is my dream!!! (As a side note, Becca’s newest book that she co-wrote with author Conner Kressley, titled “Taken By The Beast” is a BBW Paranormal Romance written as a spin on Beauty and the Beast, is available on Amazon for only $.99!! Hopefully on both the Canadian Amazon, not just the American. I haven’t read it yet, but for that price it’s worth a peek right? Yes, I just threw this little plug in here for her! It wasn’t intentional, it just kind of happened- lol! She didn’t ask me to or anything, but she is just such a beautiful and kind person, deserving every plug she gets!!!) So, was this entire post even actually about anything or did I just waste 5 minutes of your time that you’ll never get back!! Hee Hee Hee!!😏
