Anticipation



It's coming.
The challenge...
Thirty-one days of blogging.
It's almost here.
Plans are being made.
Students preparing.
Ideas formulating.
Blogs warming up.

Waiting.
Anticipation.
Excited. Worried.
Will I be able to do it?
Will I fail?
What if I can't?

Want to know the secret
to succeeding?
Show up.
Every day.
Show up.
Write.
Read.
Comment.

  2. Me! I am feeling anxious, but excited and glad to have some students in with me (6 other classes at school will join in and 1 teacher slicing too). I love your slice- the perfect mix of can do and nerves (all with a plan)!

  3. I feel anxious every year...but it is that good sort of anxiety, the one that gets my motor revving.

  5. I'm in! I can't believe it is almost here. I am a little bit envious of those who are joining us for the first time. I think there is something to be said for the naivete of that first year - and all the excitement. Here we go!

  11. Michelle,
    I so love that it is also my fifth year! So creative today! I think I am going to have to hunt for an old typewriter! Love that in the picture! I was ready to add "bottom in the seat" after "show up, every day"! So true!

  12. Okay, I'm jealous over the typewriter...it might be on my wishlist in life. I've been on the fence and just wrote a post about that fence in a way. I knew coming over here would reduce the size of the fence but I'm really hesitant this year but I heard your voice in my head and maybe I need to add some new structures to write. Stay tuned...

  13. I'm right by your side, Michelle. I am going into my 4th year. Rocking Rocks and so does our community of writers.
