Hello,

I know I haven't talked to you in a couple of weeks, and I have missed you.

I hope you're writing, I am ,though I would love more hours to do so and must figure out how to get there and work on it. I tell you reading or listening to great (even good) works does help motivate you to write more and find the time to do it' its one of the great motivators to get going.

I have a new job and will be leaving my present position soon which I am so grateful to do on top of being happy I was able to get a new job in this environment in the first place. I of course have a goal that may be more of a fantasy and I know you know it; to write full time and make a living at it. There; I said it or wrote it out loud and it's okay becasue I just see it as trying, all I can do is try and get there, that's it.

Joseph Pulitzer: "Put it before them briefly so they will read it, clearly so they will appreciate it, picturesquely so they will remember it, and above all, accurately so they will be guided by its light."

If you have any comments or suggestions, please do not hesitate to e-mail me, I would appreciate it: mathewsla@hotmail.com.

Until next time, God willing,Lori
