Tuesday/Friday Blog Schedule Announcement

Looking forward. 
Starting this coming Tuesday, June 26, I'll be blogging every Tuesday and Friday on a regular schedule. The challenge and pressure of making this happen will do me good. I'm a deadline girl (and seasoned procrastinator), so why not create a rigid deadline for one the things I enjoy doing most? Here goes.

This will be challenging no doubt, but the only way to become better at anything is to practice the art, right? So I must write. The goal is to take this Tuesday/Friday gig through the end of 2012, then reassess. I've put it out the public now, so I have to deliver. I'm sure the blog will continually evolve in post topic and length, in focus and style, and I look forward to seeing where we end up together – you know, me and my peeled eyes.

This hefty blogging commitment was spurred from a few deeply moving comments and compliments I've received over the past few months. Most amazingly, I got a blog comment from a woman in Ireland who told me how much reading my blog has helped her to help her best friend who is currently undergoing treatment for Hodgkin Lymphoma. The thought of that worldwide connectedness is just what I needed to kick my rear into gear. I have many gaps to fill about my spring and summer adventures and many new stories to write and topics to ponder on. I hope you'll come along with me on the journey.

Catch ya on Tuesday!

  1. Yay! I'm thrilled to know that I'll be able to read Karin on a regular basis. I was having withdrawal pains there for a while. Karin = Writer!

  3. I'm so glad you'll be blogging regularly. I've been following your blogging since the beginning of your journey & your courage & tenacity amaze me. My BFF's niece had her own battle with Lymphoma,,diagnosed when she was 7 months pregnant with her first child. (I've "pinned" your blog on my Pinterest page.)
