2015 was a good
year. I wrote more this year than I ever had in the past. I
learned a lot along the way, received some rejections, but also
acquired some positive feedback; all things to grow on. I plan to
make a few final submissions today, and then continue on in the new
year.
One thing I thought
about this year was; now that I have so many notebooks full of ideas
and stories, I should invest in a fire-proof safe. Why? Because what
would happen if there was a fire? All of my stories and poems would
be gone. Some of it would be saved, if it is online, but I would also
put my external hard drive in the safe.
What would happen
if I died? What if I died in a fire? Not only would my writing be
gone, but I would be vanquished with it. As with most art, it would
probably be worth more once I am gone, so I should probably keep it
safe. Maybe someday, someone would find a lost story or poem and it
would affect them. That's all I can hope for.
Personally, it has
been a good year also. Some ups and downs, but the future looks
bright. I am excited about the coming new year, new possibilities,
and prospects.
Cheers!
