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 finished the Dresden Files (except Side Jobs, his collection of shorts) and moved on to The Chaperone by Laura Moriarty for book club. A very good book, but nowhere near as suck-me-in engaging as Dresden. I'm still going to bed too late (thanks a heap, Gabby Douglas), but at least I'm not spending every free moment nose-in-Kindle.
That image doesn't work as well, does it? Technology is great until it renders our cliches obsolete. 
At MTMS , we cleared 275 and dropped back down when a family of three withdrew, but we're still two-steps-forward-one-step-back in the volume growth category, which is the opposite of May and June, which makes me very happy. I love my job again.
On the weight loss front, I dropped four pounds and held... all summer long. I suppose I should be happy I'm not gaining, but I still have twenty-six pounds to go according to my goals. I ate three molasses cookies (6 points) and drank two cups of creamered coffee (2 points) for breakfast today. Yay, go me.
On the writing front... (wait, there's a writing front?) ...two months until "October Novel Prep Challenge" [13+], which means one month until advertising and fundraising begins. Other than that, I'm behind on my WDC blog (yours truly) and my business blog, I've been away from social media and the Internet in general, I have three website revisions in progress, and I'm behind in my church duties.
I will accomplish something on my to-do list today. *scribbles "take nap" on to-do list* |

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)
