About This Author

La Bene Vita
I am a professional musician  , worship leader , small business owner , songwriter , aspiring author and freelance nonfiction writer with a chemical engineering degree .
But that's just my resume.
My profile of qualifications is only one of the ways in which I am unique. Here I chronicle my personal and professional goals and my efforts to achieve them. Occasionally I fail. Mostly, I take daily baby steps toward all my long-term goals. Much like the stories I pen, the songs I compose, and the businesses I run, I am always a work in progress.

I'm almost officially on Spring Break. Since I manage the new location (Polaris, which is only open Mon-Thu so far) and not the original location (Gahanna, which is also open Fridays and Saturdays for lessons), then I have a bit of choice in the matter. I'd like to declare Spring Break ON, but I haven't written my six evaluations yet. 
Enrollments:
That's another thing. I need to put some more online enrollment options on the website. Reception gave me options for Polaris but not Gahanna. We need to be on auto pilot next week, since we're closed.
Minecraft:
Yes.  I even spent some time reading online tutorials yesterday. Every time I think I'm an "expert" at this game, I discover new, more complicated things that I can do.
Weight:
No comment.
Poor Witch:
Here's a quick status update on the saga:
Book 1: In the edit stage. It's been through a comprehensive plot edit. Next comes voice/characterization. The final edit will be for grammar/usage/spelling/typos.
Book 2: NaNo 2012, and only partially written. I "won" that year but didn't finish the story. Also, the story that I did write needs a lot of tweaking to align it with Books 1 and 3.
Book 3: NaNo 2013, and I actually finished this one, so I have full draft, though a rough draft.
Book 4: In the concept stage and fodder for the "October Novel Prep Challenge" [13+] at some point. I *think* this will be the book that resolves the story arc, but the stupid story keeps growing.
I've decided it's time to work on Book 2. I'm not sure if I'll be writing or editing or both, but I'll need to start by reading - the draft as it stands so far and the outlines and other development notes.
Reading:
Finished Eragon. Checked out Eldest and started reading. Will probably read a lot next week, due to Spring Break.
Violin:
Been practicing, but stalled. I'm struggling with something, and it frustrates me, so I only practice for ten or fifteen minutes at a time. I have a lesson today.
Evaluations:
Approved all Gahanna reviews. Must write my own Polaris reviews.
Youth Praise Band:
Three songs in progress, so I'm good here, because we haven't completed the three songs. I won't need another new song for at least a week or two, if at all. |

Even better if she can whistle to the tune of Mozart or something.

I don't know how you do it, but I assume there's magic involved *^*Bigsmile*^* I have really enjoyed this month of planning and preparation for NaNoWriMo and I love how organized it all is. Thank you for hosting a great challenge and for your dedication to helping so many of us prepare with confidence and trepidation for National Novel Writing Month (known to sane folks as 'November' *^*Laugh*^*) at your [Link To Item #1474311]](https://images.Writing.Com/imgs/writing.com/writers/badges/general-Organization-1150.gif)

For your hard work, commitment, talent and innovation in running the October NaNoWriMo Preparation each year, which helps many of us get our scattered thoughts together for November's novel-writing. And also because this badge has ducks on it.](https://images.Writing.Com/imgs/writing.com/writers/badges/general-Leadership.gif)
