Well…the changes in our lives have been coming pretty fast this year, haven't they? And we're not even through the first quarter! š Some of us have more to do than ever as we try to adjust to a new way of working, while others have extra time on their hands because of social distancing and not going out to meet with friends and family.
It's hard. No doubt about it. But we can make it through all this and be better people for it! For instance, churches around the world are trying to figure out better ways of communicating with the people in the church and those in local neighborhoods – without actually being able to get together. I've received and sent some video messages that warm my heart. Why haven't I done this before? š
I did make it to London and back before borders began closing, and it was a great trip. But London Book Fair cancelled the day before I flew out so I was trying to figure out how to put the time to good use. I got together with several writers, which was great for networking, and I saw a couple of very cool bookstores – and bought a book in each of them. š That was awesome!
Today is a busy day, interviewing people for the WRITE NOW! Workshop PodcastĀ (you can watch the video versions on YouTube), making a meal for my friends who are also dealing with one going through chemo, and trying to get some work done on the new book. Busy but good. I hope your week is the good kind of busy and that you find lots of things to smile and laugh about!
Here are some pictures from my trip. š Tomorrow is my birthday and hopefully we'll find something fun to do since our plans are cancelled. I'll take pictures and post them later. š
