ABOUT THE BLOG
Hi!
I was NOT raised to work in the CREATIVE SPHERE, but ended up a writer and had to learn from scratch, working against my natural tendencies. It’s been a l-o-n-g learning curve, and I’m still climbing it. 
So much of success is about having the guts to put one foot in front of the other and move forward, not waiting for an obstacle-free path but identifying obstacles and overcoming them.
That’s what this blog is about – finding the next step and TAKING it.
I love hearing from readers, so when a post sparks a thought, go ahead and leave a comment! OR, if you prefer, write to me at asgoodadayasany@gmail.com.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
A former corporate trainer and business writer, MARILYN now writes from her studio in the Appalachian foothills of Southern Ohio. She produces feature articles and web content for a variety of outlets on topics as diverse as leadership, technology, faith, grief, food, parenting and more. Her work has appeared in Moody Magazine, Leadership Journal, Guideposts, Upper Room and many other publications.
She is occasionally lured out of seclusion to teach about personal experience writing, lead workshops or speak about really, really serious non-writing stuff. Sometimes she brings cookies.
Marilyn credits a spurt in productivity in recent years to the folks at AT&T, who have somehow managed to get her listing in the phone directory wrong for 5 years straight.
Hey Marilyn! I am so thankful I found your blogsite! This is great!
Even though you say you weren’t raised to work in a creative sphere, I think you definitely were, but just didn’t realize it! ;~)
I love the idea about finding the next step and taking it!
Thanks for sharing you with me!

hahaha!!
I don’t know why I just found this for the first time (not the blog but the about the author part), but I LOVE it!
OK, this is so you! I have missed our talks! I haven’t written anything in a while, but I have to say, your blog-site truly inspires me and fans that flame once again! I am so excited to have a break soon from work! I have a feeling I may need to go buy some new notebooks!
Love you, Marilyn! Thank you!!! for being you!
I only just found this part of the blog. It was so interesting to find out more about Marilyn!
I once enjoyed taking the same course twice at Write! Canada, because it was you teaching it. Also because I had a lot to learn!
I have never forgotten the principles you taught (hearing them twice helped.) Thank you so much for sharing yourself with us in Canada!
