I feel extra pressure on guest posts as it is not my usual audience. I guess I should just approach each post with the same mindset. <abbr><em>Chris (from Lifestyle Project)s last blog post..<a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/LifestyleProject/~3/465093330/" rel="nofollow">What will you do today?</a></abbr></em> @Writer Dad – Thanks for the reply.

I promise one more before the end of the year, and then I'll figure out what to do with it in January. I love the story and would love to give it attention. Sigh. Too many projects, too little time.
