It’s been All-Book-All-The-Time around here, as my book launch looms closer.
(November 15th! That’s less than two months away! Ack! Click here for more info.)
But, of course, life doesn’t slow down just because you’re writing a book. No, sir-ee!
That’s why I got ruthless a few weeks back, and cut out a bunch of activities I’d been doing regularly which weren’t directly helping me get the book done.

But life doesn’t stop or slow down for us, of course. And last week I had a two-day trip to San Diego on Sunday and Monday, and when I got home I had no fewer than four shows with my improv group, All That Jazz, because we had been accepted into the San Francisco Fringe Festival. Yay!
And oh, no! Four shows, four drives up to San Francisco in rush hour traffic, meant something like twenty hours out of my week!
But I still managed to get almost nine and a half hours of work done on my book. Considering that my goal is at least two hours per day, and I was gone for two days, that’s not too bad.
And, having four improv shows in one week was quite a learning experience. So I thought I’d share with you some of the lessons learned from leaping without a net four times in a one week.
Cool news! I’m going to be teaching on Life Book 2017 next year!

Even more exciting is that I get to give away one space on this amazing year-long art course!

It’s very meditative to add to a doodle like this, just letting my hand go where it wants to.
All of these black and white doodles are likely to end up in my forthcoming book. Get more info at http://bit.ly/2c9dFPq
