No Rules of Architecture for a Castle in the Clouds

By
Real Estate Agent with Falcon Property Solutions

 There are no rules of architecture for a castle in the clouds. G. K. Chesterton

I have been somewhat M.I.A. lately. Business has been wonderfully busy, and I am in the midst of writing my eighth novel, so I don't spend a lot of time blogging or commenting when my heart is otherwise occupied. But I do continue to take pictures when I'm out for a walk or out showing houses. Here's my contribution to the ActiveRain Clouds Group this week. Whichever direction you face, Colorado Springs is truly a beautiful city.

Mimi,  That is an amazing photo.  Like you, I've been busy. I have not spent one minute on my book.  I hope to get back to it very soon.

One hour a day, my friend. Before the hustle and bustle of the world comes in. Or when you sit down with a glass of wine to unwind from a long day and you think of why you're thankful you've survived. No editing, just words on the paper. Bullet points work too. Thanks for commenting ;)

I'm not writing a book but have been very lax about blogging.  Great picture.

I always think of it as a 'season,' Liz. Sometimes we're more prolific than others :)

WELCOME, Stacie Streets. I think one of the things that will help you on your journey here (and as you blog) is a combination of business and 'real.' I don't hesitate to post non-real estate stuff, but then I post relevant information and it's a great balance. People want to know who they're doing business with, so let your personality shine.

Feel free to ask questions . . . my email is mimi @mimifoster.com.
