Blog Prompt - Beautiful

from http://www.kludgymom.com/idea-bank/

12. Write about a time you felt beautiful.

Vacation

A friend gave me an assignment.  Write about somewhere you'd love to be for vacation with the specific instruction to really make her feel like she's there.  I thought at I'd write about some sort of sandy beach, warm weather and clear water.  That's where I'd love to vacation but I don't have a lot to reference as I've never been there.  Just seen the photos.  Maybe I'll do something with that one eventually, but for now?  I'll go a different direction.  I will have plenty I will be writing in first person so for now I'll dip into 3rd...

Tiny Test  - Chapter 1

In the Beginning.....

I love writing.  I always have.  It's something that has always had a presence in the back of my mind.  It's been this little voice occasionally making itself known.  "Later," is always what I told it.  "I'll have time for you later."

Too much has gone on in my life (as it does in everyone's) to always put it off.  If not now, when?  So I decided to create this blog as just a way to practice my skill and stretch me in ways I'm not used to.  I'm hoping to come up with some of my own ideas but for a while I will mostly be using writing prompts.  I figure writing prompts will take me where I never intended to go.  There can be a lot of fun and challenges when you're letting someone else start the journey.  Poetry, fiction, nonfiction, biographical.. I hope to do a bit of it all.  I'm excited and nervous.  What if I suck? *shrug* I kind of have to say, "Who cares?"  

So here we go.....
