			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I haven&#8217;t updated my website much. I&#8217;ve been pretty busy with a few side projects, other blogs and getting ready for the school year.</p>
<p>So I have emerged from the creative setbacks and entered a new level of frustration. I now am FULL of ideas but can not figure out how to put them on paper or make them all work together. Fun Times I tell ya!</p>
<p>It seems like everyone seems to be getting MS requests and offers for representation and publishing deals lately. I am so excited for everyone. Still I feel a little let down that I&#8217;m not one of them. BUT I have to remember they have all been here longer than me and I need to have patience. I can&#8217;t wait till it happens to me!</p>
<p>I heard the best thing this weekend and I intend to live by it. Someone said, &#8220;Hope Big&#8230;it may not happen how or when you want it to&#8230;but it WILL happen!&#8221;</p>
<p>So my friends&#8230; have you been full of Big Hopes lately?</p>
