Suzy Toronto's Plan B Is The Place To Be!
Happy Monday, D. D. Scott-ville!
Each January 1st, to turn over the guard to the next 365 days of my life, I put up all my new calendars. And those calendars, which I've taken great care to pick out, become my new mantras for the new year.
So without further adieu...2011 in D. D. Scott-Calendar-Ville...is all about...
Plan B
Plan B - as in fabulous artist Suzy Toronto 's Plan B:
What is Suzy's Plan B?
Here's the scoop straight from her January print:
Life Is All About How You Handle Plan B
Plan A is always my first choice. You know, the one where everything works out to be "happily ever after." But more often than not, I find myself dealing with the upside-down, inside-out version where nothing goes as it should. It's at this point the real test comes in...Do I sink or do I swim? Do I wallow in self-pity and play the victim or simply shift gears and make the best of the situation? The choice is mine. After all...life is all about how you handle Plan B.
Plan B...it's the true test of character.
How fabulous is this mantra?!
When I stumbled upon Suzy's Calendar in a Cracker Barrel, I knew I'd found my secret to living life in 2011!!!
Plan B is exactly what my cofounding of The WG2E was all about!
Writers now "get" - after continuing to watch and live the fall-out of the traditional publishing business model - that Traditional Plan A ain't workin'. The Happily Ever Afters we write about aren't showing up on our royalty statements. Are we going to sink with the traditional publishing world or swim into a new and very exciting sea of opportunity? And if we're going to shift gears in order to swim into the Epublishing Sea, and make the best of the situation, won't that be a beyond fabulous test of our character?
Very "Plan B"...don't ya think?!
So come along with us as we swim at The WG2E!
Oh...and check out Suzy's fabulous site too...she's my kinda gal!!!

Fun calendar! I love writing in new calendars! I get one for my husband every year that has our beloved Schnauzers on it. I've been doing that before we were married, so it's a tradition at this point. I open it (for him-of course) and write down everything we need to know for the month (for him so he will know, of course) and stick right where he can see it (because I know exactly what we are doing every day with four boys playing sports-because I'M FAB!).
Cheers!
That's a super cool Schnauzer Calendar tradition!
Did I ever tell you that I had a Schnauzer (salt-and-pepper colored) when I was a little girl? Her name was Muffin, and she was wonderful!!!
Anyhoo...
My DH does everything on his iPhone via Outlook. Not me...I luuuvvv my quirky fun yet philosophical too pieces of art calendars.
