Invitation for your news

Lately it has felt like there is a ton of bad news all around. Everywhere I look I find more of it. And it's been getting me down. Last night I was at my writing group, and somehow, through whatever I was writing, something shifted. And I just felt DONE with bad news, like I just wanted to say, "Back off, bad news. I'm over you." 

My friend Joy Preble emailed me to tell me her good news about the recent sale of her new series, which sounds totally amazing, and I can't wait to read it. And I was so happy she shared her good news with me. And I realized, in a way I never had before, how awesome it is to hear friends' good news. My joy for them lifts me up and buoys me and floats me away from all that other stuff. 

So this is a reminder and an invitation. If you have good news, share it! Don't be shy. Your good news is a gift not just to you but to everyone who cares about you, everyone who shares your life, and sometimes even to those peripheral online friends who might be inspired by what's happening for you. So the invitation is extended, I'm on a hunt for good news, no matter how great or small. Share yours and let us celebrate with you
