Hello April

It never ceases to amaze me that the natural world wakes up again in the spring - that things can die to the ground and come back again as bright and green and full of life as ever before. I carry so much love for this time of the year.

I kinda feel like this would be a really good time of the year for Thanksgiving.

I guess every day is really a pretty good darn day for giving thanks.

Here's to a wonderful month ahead.

ONE LITTLE WORD

A new prompt is up in the One Little Word classroom. This workshop is open for new registration throughout the year. If you'd like to make a commitment to make your word visible in your life this year (take action) come join us.

31 THINGS

Looking for a self-paced workshop that will really encourage you to tell a bunch of different stories about your life? Check out my self-paced workshop over at Big Picture Classes called 31 Things. Each day for 31 days you will receive an email that includes a specific word/theme for the day, a detailed writing prompt with suggestions on how to tell the story, my writing sample/layout, and a photo prompt. More information and registration available here.

In other cool news, I'm now an official corporation: Ali Edwards Design, Inc. It doesn't really change anything around here (more has to do with taxes and such) but it's pretty cool nonetheless.Thanks for coming along on this journey with me.
