Keep It Simple

On my other blog, It’s All About Family, I’m once again following Amy Crow Johnson’s 52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks.

I was successful with Week 1 but am already a week behind because I struggle with trying to just tell the story of the prompt. I feel like I need to fill the reader in on the backstory before I get to the topic at hand.

A beginning sentence will pop into my head as I’m doing something else and I try to keep it there until I type it but then it doesn’t sound right. So I think about it some more. I might have an entire post typed up, but then I second guess myself. In fact, I have two posts in drafts for this one subject!

My library has a Writing Guild which is starting back this month after a hiatus and it’s in my calendar. My hope is to get some guidance in my writing of those posts.

Weekend Chore

I went to find paperwork for the post I’m working on for my other blog It’s All about Family and it was nowhere to be found! I took a look in my main binder and it’s a disaster!

Posluszny family binder

I wondered what I would do today and now I’ll be spending the next few hours (probably into tomorrow) tidying it up and organizing all my ancestry files.

That is a shameless plug for my family stories. You might find them interesting!
