Prickly Part-time job is good for you

      Oh wow, I have not posted since. . . feels like last month, but it was only this month. Good thing no one reads this blog.
For any one out there, I am still retired English teacher, but working part-time, full-time for two local weeklies. I love parts of it--writing the stories, meeting new friends, and learning more about the valley I live in.
      But I have to say, there are a few prickly points in the job, but what is the old saying: "With every rose there are thorns"? That must be true of all  jobs, conflicts and life.
      This is good practice and discipline for my memoir or novel writing plan. I must write almost a story a day; thus, for writing a major piece I should be writing at least 1000+ words on it a day. I need that motivation.
      I will probably start posting some of my stories and photos because I am learning how to do that, so this job is a good thing for me to do. How about you?
