I am a jumper.  I jump in with both feet for the next "anything".  If I am passionate about something then I will go crazy for it.  I don't do it halfway.  I just can't decide if this is a good thing, or a bad thing.  Passion is a wonderful thing, it is what dreams are made of.  I have dreams, I just can't seem to define them all....yet.

When I first started this website and blog it was about garnering the attention of other women in hopes that my simple life would strike a cord with them. I think it has.  This make me so happy.  But as life changes, so have I.  I want more.  I have always wanted to write a book, so that is on my list of to-dos.  I thought about turning this blog into a book.  Of course after being called "Carrie Bradshaw" yet again, I am not sure.  But that isn't everything. I have other ideas in mind, other books that may need to get out.  How do I go from idea to idea and not lose my passion for one?

I have been thinking about this for a long time now.  I have two blogs, this one and a vegan blog.  I have discovered that my readers are completely different.  It feels as if I am asking a hunter to subscribe to veganism.  So I created a second blog and am searching for my place in that genre.  This is not easy, and at times leaves me feeling fractured.  Managing two blogs, two Facebook fan pages, and two Twitter accounts.  It all seems a little overwhelming.  The reality is, it really doesn't have to be.  Isn't this all part of the passion, the dream?

I love technology.  I have found a way to keep up with all my social media on one site.  Gotta love that. Of course it is the interface I have to get used to.  All in good time.   Rome wasn't built in a day.  So I am laying the foundation brick by brick, layer by layer.  I am still looking for ways to simplify the process.  I am just not sure the process is able to be simplified.  I probably wouldn't know what that looks like anyway. 

I do know this. I have found what lights me up.  I have found an enthusiasm for things that make me want to share it with the world. It feeds my soul.  Social media, self promotion, and everything that goes with it can be a full time job.  A full time job that doesn't pay well.  Or at least not in the traditional way.  I am paid, and handsomely.  Every time I have a new follower or a new fan, I feel like I am being richly rewarded.  And while I do it for the "rewards", my main reason for doing it is because it makes me happy.  I love to write, and I really love to write about things I know. 

So that is what I am doing, I am writing about being a single woman, approaching middle age.  Am I really approaching middle age???  And I am writing about being a compassionate vegan.  The two may never intersect in the virtual world.  In my world they are one in the same.  In my readers world?  Not so much.  Guess I will just keep on doing it....one blog at a time, on two sites of course.
