Preparing for Wordless Weeks

I’ve written this post in my head several times during the past week, but now that I’m typing away I can’t seem to reclaim those words that eloquently formed within my mind. Nevertheless, I’m planning a couple of “Wordless Weeks” to save my words and creativity for my websites and business. I’ve been inspired by various influences, from the stories I learn about each of my co-workers or regular customers to the festive fall foliage. Because I plan to participate in NaNoWriMo, I also want to save some of my story-writing for November. I have a little more than three weeks to brainstorm and plan what story cannot wait past November. I have several ideas, but only one can take center-stage next month. I have never been good at following through on my stories, but this year I’m going to write a story from start to finish. So for the next 20 days, I invite you to walk through my backyard, admiring the fall foliage as it is today — or rather yesterday, as this was scheduled yesterday.
