Me Happy

I got a new phone today--the phone I've been drooling over for almost a year and no, it's not an iPhone. It's a Sprint Instinct in pink with a fuscia case. Isn't it pretty? Of course, my webcam probably doesn't take the best picture, but I think it's awesome, which is hilarious to me since I usually hate pink. I do, however, like bright, vibrant colors. They make me happy and that's always a good thing.

I'm heading out to the LDStorymakers conference tomorrow afternoon and will be gone all weekend, reveling in the company of other writers like myself. I can hardly wait! It's one of the hightlights of my year.

Anyway, just wanted everybody to know I'm still alive and some good things are starting to happen. I'll blog about it more after the conference, but just know if you're a young writer or the parent of a young writer, a few more possibilities are about to open for you.

Quote of the Day: "Sharing our stories can also be a means of healing. Grief and loss may isolate us, and anger may alienate us. Shared with others, these emotions can be powerfully uniting, as we see that we are not alone, and realize that others weep with us."
