Top 20 Books I read in 2013 (revisited!)
20. Labyrinth, by Kate Mosse. This was a Christmas gift from my friend Jamie (Christmas 2012, not this one), and it is, like Gabaldon’s work, chic lit for the smart chic. I add it here because (ha, the same reasons, actually!) it has action, it has romance and it has magic... and because I learned a lot about the Crusades and the Inquisitions (both from the actual book and from all the research that it led me to), and this feeds my own writing so organically!

No plot? No problem! A review
I wrote a 53,000 word novel in a month by following the steps outlined in No Plot? No Problem! by Chris Baty. I first heard of National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) a couple years ago but it wasn't until this year that I learned its creator wrote a book. I tried NaNoWriMo last year without a guide and failed miserably at meeting the word count. I was eager to write and ready to get my story on the page for the first week, and then I slowed down and writing became less of a priority. I did not meet the 50,000 word goal.

You Have Enemies?GOOD.
"You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life." Perhaps you persuaded a reluctant parent to allow you to go on a band trip to Disneyland. Maybe you saved a bunch of kids from being robbed at a convenience store. Did you take that grade-school math test and actually know what was going on? Would you rather be a cheerleader or a nun?

Mind Is A Parachute That Work When It Is Open
A mind is like a parachute. It doesn’t work if it is not open. — Benjamin E. Mays Mays Read the words above aloud. The mind being like a parachute, and words being like parachutes, they don’t work if they are not open. One or the other needs to work well, and if either one does not work well, neither one works. You must make sure your mind is open so you can be prepared for whatever life hands you.
