Two Things

I love writing. Hence the blog. Since I was old enough to learn the alphabet I've had an intense passion for stringing words together.

I'm thoroughly enjoying this new blog. I've had others before- in fact I'm kind of a blogging ho. I've done the LJ thing, the Xanga thing, the Wordpress thing (which was a VERY brief love affair, more like a close-mouthed kiss really), and now Blogger is the new flavour of the week. Except more like the flavour of forever, because I'm sold on the fact that this is the best free blogging service out there! But I digress.

So, naturally I was excited to receive this award from the One-minute writer: My one-minute writing of the day.
Thanks C.Beth!

Also, awhile ago I wrote an article about Daddy and sent it into the Globe & Mail. I got an e-mail back last week stating that they'd like to publish it in the Lives Lived section of the print and online editions of the paper. The Globe & Mail! Of course, it's sort of bittersweet. I'm excited that so many people will have the opportunity to read about the wonderful person my Dad was, but I really wish it was something I didn't have to write. Either way- it's in the Globe & Mail tomorrow. I'll post the link then.

Stay tuned, I'm constantly searching for new ways to do what I love.
