Last night, after a satisfying two days of writing and being right on track with a deadline this week, I got some news that threw my tight schedule out the window for five days. I woke up at 4 a.m. thinking about what to do and putting in some extra prayer time. Then, when checking email, I received a Google Alert, those little email notices that tell you when someone has mentioned you somewhere online. I clicked through and found a post by my former writing student, Myra Johnson, called “When Life Interrupts.” Yes! Terrific article–and good ideas in the comments section as well. I had to smile at what Myra had written about me. In part she said, “She’s an expert in working through the interruptions!” I thought Hmmmm… If I was such an expert, then I could stop floundering as I tried to reclaim in my writing schedule for the week.

   Hi, Kristi! I remember so well the many challenges you managed to write through during and after the time I was your ICL student. You inspired and humbled me!

   Glad you found the Seekerville blog. We have some openings if you’d ever like to be one of our guest bloggers — just let me know!

   Hi, Myra! Yes, those were very challenging years, much tougher than anything else I have going on now. Thanks for the offer to be a guest blogger. Would it work for you sometime in August? I’m kinda swamped this month. You can let me know.
