I turn forty-two today. I mention this not for birthday wishes and gifts (although I won't turn my nose up at those things) but because I had to change my age at the top of the blog and am reminded once more of how far behind I am in my goal. As ever, I'm not worried. Once I get all my Mangoes done for MuchoMangoMayo, I'll be throwing myself back into the story writing. As I mentioned in a previous post, the writing is coming more easily than ever. I'm completely confident that I can spin out all the first drafts I need to meet my goal. I'm not so sure I can spin out all the final drafts I need, but if I thought this would be a walk in the park, I wouldn't even be interested in it, would I?
And Happy Easter, if that's your thing!
Happy Birthday Matt and good luck with the writing - the stuff I have seen and heard from you so far has been very good indeed.
ReplyDeleteTangentially, I turned 42 six months ago and I still haven't figured out what the question is.
Hey, thanks a bunch, Paul! And I'm very happy to hear you're digging the writing.
ReplyDeleteYes, a certain someone got all our hopes up for 42.
Happy Birthday, Matt!
ReplyDeleteLong live the Mango! (And the podcast, too, if you know what I mean.)
Thanks, John! I've got a mango right here with your name on it.
ReplyDeleteBelated birthday congratulations! As ever, I appreciate your attitude toward the goal and the journey there. Maybe you can allow that walk in the park in your spare time...maybe later...
ReplyDeleteThank you, Elke!
