Do you have anything that you always thought you would do but haven't? It could be anything at all. I have always thought I would like to write a book. I even went to a reader once who was reading me and, amongst a lot of other interesting stuff she told me, she said I should write a book...it was in my stars! LOL This was over ten years ago. So now I'm thinking I am ready to write my book.

So, I am asking...

Do you have any unfulfilled dreams, hopes or wishes?

    I would also like to write. I don't know about writing a book, but I enjoy writing things. I have had several people tell me that I have a way puting words together and being humorous and that I should write. I just never know where to start.

    Yes, plenty!! I've had moments in my life where I would repress them but I'm starting fresh now and just going for it. You only get to live once so you might as well give it a go. What type of book are you considering? You should definitely write, even if its a single page a day, it all adds up :)

    I've had this stranger asked if I was an artist once. I wasn't wearing anything special, pretty plain clothes but he said he could tell because he works with a lot of designers and there was something about me that radiated it. That made me smile because I was a student back than and had a lot of self doubt. I'm a designer now so yeh, pretty close :) I still have plenty of dreams unfulfilled but at least it gives me something fun to work towards.

    Isn't that funny, I have a couple of friends who say that I too have a way with words. I would say to start with something that is close to your heart. Just do it! Good Luck!

    How wonderful for you! You may have additional artistic avenues yet to be explored, how exciting!

    I want to write a book on how to live green. You know, make your footprint on the earth smaller, that sort of rot. But I also am thinking of children's books. I have a new niece due in a month so maybe she will inspire me.
