I Get by with...friends - Jo-Ann Carson

I Get by with…friends


This week in the writer’s loft:
Word Count: Hmmmmm . I’m working on the second draft of the second book in my series. I need to add about 15,000 words. I can do this. Can’t I? Being new, I feel like a five year old in the kitchen baking a cake. If I add too much of any one ingredient it aint going to work. I hope that it never becomes easy though, because playing with the words is so much fun.
SoMe: My Twitter followers and Goodreads friends are growing, but I’m not saying much on either, yet. Not to mention Facebook which continues to have a whammy on me.  I’m waiting to find my cyber voice:)
Deviants: Are you interested in deviants? Diane Kratz wrote a great post on the eleven personality disorders, on her site about criminal profiling…
Friends:  As a writer I have become even more aware of how important my friends are to me, because it may appear to be a solitary endeavor, but for me it involves a lot of people coaching, supporting and cheering me on.  Sooo I went looking for good quotes about friends, and chose five interesting ones (not in any order):
“Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born.”
– Anais Nin

“Your friend is the man who knows all about you, and still likes you.”
– Elbert Hubard
“I get by with a little help from my friends.”
– John Lennon
“Friends are the most important ingredient in this recipe of life.”
– (sent by Dior Yamasaki)

“Treat people as if they were what they ought to be and you help them to become what they are capable of being.”
-Goethe
