I signed up for your newsletter & received the 50% coupon code but when I applied it to my cart in the coupon code area it said: Sorry, that code is either invalid or expired.<br />I would like to purchase a copy :) Please let me know if there is something I could do differently. Thank you !<br />-AshleyAshley Andrewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12023164971244018313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2876403658608858252.post-5257926071537290822012-01-06T09:48:13.991-08:002012-01-06T09:48:13.991-08:00Vic: Intentions... resolutions... it's practic...Vic: Intentions... resolutions... it's practically all the same thing, right? :)<br /><br />Connie: Thanks! I forgot to mention that I will probably only be doing the 5 minutes a day thing 5 or 6 days a week. Whoops! I usually take Sundays off (at least from feeling like I NEED to write) just so I have a mental breather and so I can spend guilt-free time hanging out with my family.<br /><br />My favorite book... hmmm. That's hard. Either BIRD BY BIRD or SELF-EDITING FOR FICTION WRITERS, although I read a bunch of great ones so it's hard to choose.Kate Avery Ellisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16639363051736890588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2876403658608858252.post-1932855519368235922012-01-06T09:45:45.805-08:002012-01-06T09:45:45.805-08:00Emily: Thanks for the suggestion!

It is on my list for this year!<br /><br />Joshua: I figured 5 was the easiest goal ever, but I am hoping to make it more like 15-30 at least every day (but I won't beat myself up over it if it isn't).Kate Avery Ellisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16639363051736890588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2876403658608858252.post-35037797033014883732012-01-05T05:15:14.621-08:002012-01-05T05:15:14.621-08:00Love your resolutions.

(It has to be 15 for me because I can easily stare at the computer screen for 5 minutes, but with 15 I'm forced to write something.:)<br /><br />I hope your resolutions go well.

That second 5 is accurate, though not about writing. I read, literally, one book last year. There's another about fitness and I would have made it last year if I hadn't been in a car wreck.

But I love hearing about everyone else's resolutions! <br /><br />If you haven't read "The Elements of Style," by Strunk and White, I highly suggest you read it this year. It's my absolute favorite book on writing.Emily Whitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06478461123707071108noreply@blogger.com
