IWSG Day, March 1, 2017, Don't Belittle The Small Steps






Hello Everyone,

It is the first Wednesday of the month, and IWSG Time. 

IWSG is a writer support group created by Alex Cavanaugh. It is a big help to many of us who do not mind sharing our insecurities, our successes or giving encouragement and help to others. 

So, if you are interested and would like to join, the link below will lead you directly to us:

My report:
Submissions still out:
Wordhaus. Haven’t got an answer yet, but maybe they take a long time to deliberate.

I start submitting this month.

Cover Reveal:  Still Me…After All These Years






Don’t Belittle The Small Steps



Changes in my author life find me picking up the gauntlet every morning as I walk on another level.  I’m learning not to belittle the small steps.

How many steps I take each day, I don’t know.  Time is irrelevant in the spiritual world where human eyes cannot see or grasp what's happening.  It is scary but exhilarating. Determination and faith get me up every morning and keep me going throughout my day.  Small steps, don’t belittle the small steps.

 Easy? No!  

Sometimes the wind blows hard in my face. But each small step taken during my day makes me happy.  At night, I sleep better.  Cause I don't belittle the small steps.

Two small steps: In February, I made the shortlist for the WEP Challenge with my short flash fiction, The Box in the Loft.

In the anthology, Still Me…After All These Years, my first published non-fiction work will appear. Small Steps.  Don’t belittle the small steps!

Do not despise these small beginnings, for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin, to see the plumb line in Zerubbabel’s hand. Zechariah 4:10 (New Living Translation by Tyndale House Foundation)

Be safe and until next month,

Shalom aleichem,
