What COMPLETION feels like!!!

WINNINGGGGGGGG!!!!!

At exactly 1:54pm today... while the original version of "You're all I need to get by....." was playing... I uploaded what I wasn't aware would be the final word count in the National Novel Writing Month Competition... when I entered my book count the screen went crazy ... with a video and people cheering... me crying... doing a little dance... 













I am so grateful to everyone in my life for being so supportive...  I am no where near done... but I am done with the hard part. I am in this novel.... I have much more to write but I have a tremendous first 51,294 words down and counting!!!

Sending you all love, light and many blessings always,
Alicia

Giving thanks~

Giving thanks...

As I sit here the day after Thanksgiving I realized that I didn't post publicly all that I am privately and regularly thankful for. I don't need a special day to let you know that I love you and that I am grateful for you.

I am thankful for everyone in my life.
I am thankful for every experience that has shown up in my life.
I am thankful for every blessing that has arrived to my life.
I am grateful I have my health and my home.
I am grateful for you.
So to everyone in my life thank you for the gift that is you.

You are never alone and I love you.

You have what it takes! @nycnowrimo @NaNoWriMo #NaNoWriMo


Today I am reminding myself that I have ALL I NEED…

All that I need is inside of me…
I am at the halfway point of writing the Daughters of the Revolution and what I am discovering about this process is that once I am in… I am ALL IN! This story is consuming me in the most delicious way.  During the first week these characters did not let me sleep… there was even a moment where I cried myself to sleep because it was as if these characters wanted me to tell this story in one night…
PACE MYSELF…
BE KIND TO MYSELF…
LOVE MYSELF…
SPOIL MYSELF…
PLAY WITH MYSELF… **meaning have fun with myself… it’s not that kind of party people!!!**
Today I will remember that I have what it takes…
Everything that I need is already in me. I release the idea that I am not good enough or that I don’t have what it takes… because I know that I do have what it takes… I am 30,442 words into my novel which tells me that I have MORE than what it takes.

For this knowing I am so grateful~
And so it is~
