Finding time for writing-Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is here again-eating, shopping, watching football, and interacting with relatives. oh joy, could life be more exciting? Most of those are just "work" for me. Maybe that's strange but as an artist and a writer--my joys are painting and writing. I always think about how to find time for my writing and my art. It would have been simpler if I was only one of my three talents: Artist, Writer, Athlete. The athletics will slow down as I get older but the other two I hope to continue until I can't lift my hand and my eyes can no longer see.
The Thanksgiving Holidays hold promise for me to find some down time and also some art time. I'm pretty excited to jump at a chance to begin my new elephant herd painting. I also hope to get back to editing and rewriting my new finished novel, The Midnight Jungle.
After the Thanksgiving Holidays there will be only 3 weeks until Christmas Break and the re-launch of my most successful novel, The Honey Bee Girl. January follows and the new year 2011 will see my Brand NEW NOVEL, Montana Mist, publication Launch on AMAZON.com!!
