I can't believe the first two months of 2013 are gone! But somehow I have been able to post something - story, article or poem - every single day. It's not been easy but I'm proud of what I have accomplished so far. I hope you enjoyed at least some of my postings (if you have been following my jumbled train of thought these past two months). This month I have dabbled in poetry – well, more like feeble attempts at song lyrics. I’ve written so many customer service tips that I’ve started a separate website called Keys to Great Customer Service. I’ve even written a children’s story about Marge the Aardvark. Occasionally I do get ahead – I’ll write two or three days ahead, but the days seem to catch up to me. I also have a couple of pieces that I’m working on that are taking a lot longer than I thought to finish. Sometimes I’ll write the first sentence and stop. I save the file and hope that I’ll get back to it some day. I’ve got several customer service tips started this way. Starting is easy. A monkey with a typewriter can start a story. It’s the ending that’s always tough for me. I keep thinking I need to say more, that I haven’t made my final point. I keep looking over my writing and think I need to add more. That’s one reason why I’m writing one tip at a time. It’s easier to close the curtain on one thought. Hopefully, it’ll get easier with practice. So that’s what I’ll do – keep practicing every day. I’ll keep writing and you keep reading.
