Feeling Down???


Do you ever feel like you're never going to get what you want? 
 Sometimes it feels that way.  No matter how cute you are, or how talented you are nobody notices...
(It's enough to bring a peppy puppy down to her knobby knees.)

I know what I want...
 And I'm willing to do anything to get it...
 even beg, if I have too...
Because the payoff...is delicious!
Will you know what to do, if you get what you want?  (I'm talking about marketing strategies here people...)
Happy Writing, Friends!  I hope all of you get a big jar of happiness this week. 

Thanks for stopping in  everyone and a special thanks to Elana for hosting the Compelling Character's Experiment this weekend....

P.S. Amy's having a contest in honor of banned books week...so hop over and join in on the fun!

Heidi Willis said...

My pup LOVES peanut butter, and he's going to be so jealous yours gets to eat it right out of the jar!!

I'm still working on finding my jar. Everything seems to be at a standstill for me right now. I keep pushing through. I know at some point it will start moving again if I keep at it.

Susan Kaye Quinn said...

Ha! I think I like peanut butter almost as much as the puppy.

Karen Lange said...

MaDonna Maurer said...

Thanks for the morning smile...love your dog! And the last picture is just awesome!

Hi Sharon,
Now this is fantastic! Our dog just loves peanut butter. Although, it does have a tendency to stick to the roof of their mouths. Then again, as the dog tries to get the peanut butter off the roof of its mouth, one can grab a video camera because it looks like the dog is talking. Do I make any sense? Macy is a gorgeous dog.
This has been a pictorial delight. Thank you and happy writing to you, Sharon.
In kindness, Gary :-)

Jen Daiker said...

Carolyn V. said...

Alex J. Cavanaugh said...

We used to give our dogs peanut butter - nothing funnier. Great shots!

salarsenッ said...

Love the succession of photos!! Yeah, I had a day today that seemed no matter how height I leaped for that jar, it was constantly out of my reach. LOL.

Carol said...

I'm having real issues with my university at the moment and that really made me smile :-)

Robyn Campbell said...

Sweetness and I mean sweetness. I love that very cool, precious little puppy. And he loves Jiff. :)

I have felt like giving up at times. (Where writing is concerned.) But never did and now I feel I'm close. Real close. So NEVER QUIT. You never know what is waiting around the corner. Right puppy? :)

Sharon McPherson said...

Hey Sharon! I haven't been around for a while and now just trying to catch up ... Your blog is as inspirational and bubbly as always!!!

Funnily enough I have been feeeling down lately ... and you have cheered me up. Thank you.

Here are a couple of insights I heard:

* When you stop wanting what you want you get it.

* When there is drama in your life there is drama in your writing.

Good luck with everything :)

Hema P. said...

Janet Johnson said...
