Just Because! A Social Media Image to Share & Who Won the Barnes & Noble Gift Card

by Edie Melson @EdieMelson

I am convinced that I have the most wonderful husband in the world. Last week he walked in from running errands and handed my a bouquet of flowers—just because! I thought they were so beautiful I wanted to share them with all of you!

I would not wish any companion in the world but you. -William Shakespeare

Share a time when someone did something special for you—just because!

The Recharging Power of Wasting Time

One thing I've learned as a writer is that it's critical for me to build time into my schedule to waste time. For me, it refuels my creative well. 

What do you like to do that might qualify as wasting time?

"I like this place and could willingly waste my time in it." -William Shakespeare
