This is a great stocking stuffer for any writer. It’s small and well suited for nightly bouts of insomnia. It’s full of advice and words of wisdom, such as Status, worry, and comparison are ways to madness, not victory and Whining will not help you win the battle for publication. The tone is friendly and encouraging. It’s like your own little red cheerleader. I love it.
Should you hanker for a refreshing beverage over the holidays, I can recommend the Fab Housewife’s Partridge in a Pear Tree or Lola Sharp’s Grinch Punch.
And because I love Charlie Brown, I have to reproduce Lola’s post picture here:
Merry Christmas to all the Charlie Browns…
Thank you for stopping by Only Time Will Tell in 2011. It was, I think, a pretty good year. Thanks for your comments and interesting insights. Thanks for your entertaining blog posts.
“See” you in 2012!
My first novel takes place in one of my favorite locales: Cape Cod. It's got mystery, sex, a death, and that gritty-tangy Cape flavor.
Have a beautiful Christmas and a fun holiday!
Thanks, Carol. Same to you!
It’s snowing and I’m making xmas cookies today (again).
I actually bought the Charlie Brown Christmas tree they are selling this year. It is my dining room table centerpiece. They even give you Linus’ blanket to wrap around the base. Thank YOU for a thought provoking and fun 2011.
Aw, I want a Charlie Brown Christmas tree! That’s hilarious.
Great to meet you this year, Leslie.
Color me Grinch-green with envy for you getting SNOW! Wahhhh!!! Man, nary a flake has flown here in southern NJ this season. It’s been ridiculously warm. My roses are STILL blooming and budding! Now, I like warm weather as much as the next girl, but around the holidays I expect at least a flurry or two. *sigh*
I too love the Art Of War For Writers. You’re right, it is small and easy to hop in and out of, thus making it perfect for bedtime reading.
I wish you a very merry Christmas and may your 2012 be your best year ever!
Hugs,
Lola
Nary a flake? Poor girl.
Lots and lots of flakes here!
The Art of War for Writers sounds like a handy little tool. Happy Holidays!
Hi, there! Same to you!
Merry Christmas! It wouldn’t be the holidays without Charlie Brown
It sure wouldn’t. Merry Christmas!
Happy New Year, Lee.
Thanks, Leslie! Same to you.
“Whining will not help you win the battle for publication” – That cracked me up!
I’m hoping this year is a good one for everybody. We need a good upswing.
Yes, I agree!
Thanks for the book info. I’m looking it up right now!
I’ve enjoyed your blog this year. Happy 2012!
Thanks, Theresa. Hope 2012 is good for us!
