Happy almost Spring!  I love seeing the cherry blossoms blooming.  It makes me believe that we will get warmer weather and Summer will arive.  I also feel happier in the warmer months with longer daylight hours.

 

I finished my Creative Writing class at Portland Community College.  I am pleased to tell you that I got an A in the class (B's on both stories) and the teacher said I have "...a more than passing talent for creative writing."  That makes me feel very good. 

 

I am now beginning an online writing course that I think will teach me a lot and further me on my path to being a novelist or at least a memoirist. 

 

I am traveling for the next week.  Today (Saturday, March 22nd) I am going with my friend Melody of Eugene to Klamath Falls.  Then tomorrow we head over to the Medford/Ashland/Grants Pass area for two days.  This will be a working vacation so if any of you are in those areas and would like to talk about an appointment, please email or call.

 

Then, next Wednesday I will head out for a family vacation for two days at the beach.  I will be availble again in Portland on Friday.

 

Thanks for being interested in my activities.  Take care of yourself.
