Don't let anyone tell you differently: blogging is work. Fortunately, it's the kind of work we'd rather be doing. =)

The year is winding down and the federal income tax season is looming near. My taxes will be a mess this year--I sold off some stocks to restore our '74 Chevy Nova...but ditched the project to go to Universal Studios instead. Now, I have a disastrous tax filing ahead, a car that still won't run, and a vehement preference for Disney. #FAIL

On a brighter note, here are two blog posts you might find helpful. We shouldn't end 2011 on a note of despair. These blogs are way better than tales of tax woe.

On the Query Tracker blog is my article Caution: Contains Strong Language. You may be disappointed to find it suitable for all ages.



Over on the Pennwriters Area 6 blog I put up a reprint of a helpful blog regarding Social Networking for Writers. Consider it Networking 101 for the novice writers (and N0oBz who aren't gone digital yet.)

Many blessings and hopes for you all in 2012...I hope it's not going to be our last year on the planet but live as if it just might be. Make this year count.

Cheers, Ash
