La Bene Vita

by Brandiwyn🎶

Rated: 18+ · Book · Personal · #1411600

The Good Life.

I am a professional musician

, worship leader

, small business owner

, songwriter

, aspiring author

and freelance nonfiction writer

with a chemical engineering degree

.

But that's just my resume.

My profile of qualifications is only one of the ways in which I am unique. Here I chronicle my personal and professional goals and my efforts to achieve them. Occasionally I fail. Mostly, I take daily baby steps toward all my long-term goals. Much like the stories I pen, the songs I compose, and the businesses I run, I am always a work in progress.

In response to "Bradykinesia: Effects on Piano Practice"

You play really well. I always wanted to play piano but never had the patience to practice.

I love your shirt. "I can do anything"
I'm glad you're documenting this. You're doing so many good things.

I'm glad you're documenting the journey. You are improving, and the patience and determination that are your companions in this path aren't failing you. Keep going.

In response to "Polarismageddon, Days 17-18"

Hmm... lost my comment (computer issues).

This is a bit of a 'wake'.
d
1. Casserole delivery? Can someone babysit with tea, coffee, crumpets? An old auntie, parent, student, neighbor, friend... someone from church. Not there to do anything except give emotional support.
2. Can your husband take a day or two off... if necessary?
3. What more can be delegated or hired out like you did with the piano?
4. Is there anyone else who can meet with the landlord?
5. You seem to be good at organizing, delegating, knowing your limits, physical and otherwise. Have you given yourself a pat on the back? You deserve one.

In response to "Polarismageddon, Day 14-16"

When you reread this next year and sigh, "what was I thinking", you'll have a good enough reminder not to do it again!

In response to "MTMS Polaris: Closing in 31 days"

I haven't ignored you but I do want to apologize for waiting so long to comment. Memorializing this journey is most suitable for getting back to blogging. It may also help you in the future looking back.

Come September, I hope you can get back to writing poetry and/or songs. And keep blogging...

Wow. Just wow! Good luck. My hat's off to you. I hope things work out and you'll be able to get some help soon.

In response to "Outlining Your Novel: Traditional Outlining"

I think the spreadsheet method makes a lot of sense. Since you mentioned it, I opened up a blank Word document (not a spreadsheet) and typed "outline" in the search box. It gave me the perfect outlining format in a Word document.

.

I'm not going to use it for my NaNoPrep because I am posting everything to my portfolio, but I might use it during NaNoWriMo to keep my chapters and parts straight.

Aw, thanks, Richard ~ Shenanigans INC.! You may have noticed that I like using spreadsheets for a lot of things.
