Just the kick you need?

Published 7 months ago • 1 min read

Now until March 10, 2024 at midnight -

Submit to Volume 3 of Sippizine!

Sometimes it's nice, Reader?

It can be nice to get a kick in the pants.

Is there something that you want to do, but you haven't? Believe me, I get it. There are all kinds of reasons you haven't. Consider this a gentle nudge to take the next step.

At GroundWork yesterday, I sat around the table at BizLab, listening to the latest from other business owners. Hearing their news always inspires me to move ahead. You can feel fresh energy - a good kind of kick in the pants.

With the Sippizine submission deadline near, I'm energized by all of the interpretations on the theme, "Running." Wait until you read it!

Meanwhile...

Have you been thinking about submitting?

Here's the link to submit.

Do you know someone who should submit?

Forward this email and give them a gentle nudge.

Keep on running,

Alanna

P.S. My dad may love Take it on the Run by REO Speedwagon, but what about one of my favs, Ready to Run?

Blurry Eyed Writing Prompts

Dear Reader, A young couple received two blank journals with writing prompts as a baby gift this month. It's the first time I've given journals, but it may not be the last. Life with newborn is a time of change. I hope the journals offer a way for each of them to capture feelings and experiences that might otherwise slip into new parent fog. What were the prompts? What do/did you most admire about your parents? How can you bring those things into your own parenting? List the emotions you felt...
