This was something I hadn't planned on doing


I came in to comment on another author's blog, and discovered I needed to set one of my own up first. I should have guessed. Now that I've done it, I suppose anyone who might stop in will want to know a few things.

I'm 48, an aspiring author in the collecting rejection notice stage, and an aunt to nine children. I'm also working to cope with understanding the publishing business and its predilection for making aspiring novelists prove themselves by writing and selling non-fiction first.

Hi, Heidi! Congrats on taking the plunge, although I haven't had the guts to jump into the blogging world, yet. Until I post a blog, my page will remain unreadable, kind of like that book that still isn't finished. Hmm...

It's funny, but just yesterday I told someone that I probably wouldn't begin to blog for at least a year. So much for that prediction. Now that I've begun, I'll be semi-compelled to continue. Heidi Kortman

Congratulations, Heidi! Blogging is fun. I've had mine going since last summer. I intended to blog once a week, but I don't. I just post when I have something I want to say. Thus, it's not stressful. It doesn't keep me from my main writing goal--my latest novel.

Blessings,

Good-lookin' blog, Heidi. Being the aforementioned blogger, I'd better say that, right? LOL And it's true! I hope you find it a lot of fun, just something to do when you get the urge. No pressure. No editors! Thanks for coming over to encourage me.

Great photo. Are you in London?

Thank you Marion and Margo for the hint of posting only when I choose.

The photo is the work of my friend and traveling companion, Grace. You're right Margo, that's London--one of the places I'd love to see more of.
