Words to Ponder: Blaise Pascal (and contest winners)

“I have made this letter longer, because I have not had the time to make it shorter.”

– Blaise Pascal

How efficiently Pascal describes the usefulness of an editor!

… makes me think about that Budgeting/Writing Pencil again. Happy first day of summer to the winners of the spring contest to win one! Thank you all for participating! I decided to randomly select more than one winner after all (just because!), and will be in touch with you shortly to send you your pencil. It’s interesting to see where people access the blog. The winners are:

winpcl

#1 = Dan (Canada)

#2 = Rona (USA)

#3 = Louise (Canada)

… plus honorable mention goes to Barbara, who so often comments!

Cheers and good editing to you,
Deb

P.S. The actual pencil is NOT the same size as in the picture. 🙂

Inspirational Celebrities: Charlie Chaplin & Rainbows

“You’ll never find a rainbow if you’re looking down.”
– Charlie Chaplin

Not only that, but it’s after a storm that rainbows come. Sure, your head may be down from “stormy” circumstances… but keep that chin up! A rainbow – and all its magic – is coming your way. It may not be where you expect it to be (look away from the sun), but it’ll be there.

Cheers & a good shoot to you,
Deb
