    Bring home the bacon AND fry it up in a pan? A man of many talents;)
    I didn’t think of this exercise…I found it on Ginger Quill…Awful Souls…Then me.

    I’m curious. Who taught you how to juggle?

    Tammi - Diversity is the hallmark of life… I learned to juggle by reading an article from ONMI magazine back in 1980 when I was younger, open to learning, and less of a curmudgeon. It took most of a Saturday afternoon, but my friend Ian and I mastered it and then spent the rest of the summer annoying everyone we could find with the talent.

    I think that every writer has both Write and Procrastinate in their list of 7 things that they can do..

    FredCQ - sometimes the seven things Writers can do are;
    Write,
    avoid writing,
    hate writing,
    write some more,
    procrastinate about writing,
    think about writing while drinking,
    write.
