What could be more inspiring than posting a list of New Year’s resolutions and plans for 2019 today? But I chose not to. I’d rather keep things for myself (and less social media for personal use) and build good habits at work and writing. krisettecapati@yahoo.com
It started with a broken phone. A stubborn, contagious flu. Then a broken keyboard. Then a broken laptop. But thankful I don’t have a broken heart. It’s a trying week for the striving creative soul. And yet Queen’s song resonates: The show must go on. krisettecapati@yahoo.com

One of my favourite authors died this morning at the age of 86. Zig Ziglar has inspired and motivated me to keep on dreaming big, and I believe he lived a life of purpose. I learned so much from his books – an endless list of nuggets of wisdom worth keeping for writers, solopreneurs, authors,
