See you at the 10K! ~ Milli
P.S. For writers who are participating from overseas and who are ahead of the U.S. in their time zone: I always post the check-in page on the evening of the day before the scheduled date. So feel free to write within your own time zone and to come post your check-ins! We’ll be glad to have you warm up the page for the rest of us. 
By Milli Thornton SOMETHING HAPPENED recently to remind me that touching even one reader has a value that cannot be measured. A reader on a recent post, A Week of Taking Action, said she was so inspired by what I’d written she was going to do an “Afternoon of Taking Action” starting right that very…

By Milli Thornton THE END OF THE WORLD may be coming as advertised. On the other hand, it could all be a hoax the way Y2K was. Who knows? All I know is that I’m not going to spend 2012 listening to scary predictions. I’m going to spend it on my creative dreams. I decided…

By Milli Thornton LAST NOVEMBER I woke up one Monday morning and said to myself, “This is going to be a week of taking action.” That sounded so good—and I felt so ready for it—I decided to name it that. A Week of Taking Action. It had a thrilling ring to it that made me…

By Milli Thornton. Photos Copyright © Brian Williams and Milli Thornton SO MUCH OF the writing advice out there is about actual writing. I think it’s too easy to forget that what we do with the rest of our lives counts toward how we feel about our writing. This is already obvious to some people…
