When I unclutter my house, I unclutter my mind.
After a few days of organizing and cleaning, my home feels like a space for rest and creativity.
Today I tackled the last of it, my piles of magazines.
Wouldn't you know that in the midst of my housekeeping I found the most recent edition of the SCBWI bulletin?
Before I tossed it in my recycling bin I flipped through the pages.
An article about the Cheerios "Spoonful of Stories" contest caught my eye.
A friend had sent me information about the contest a few months ago.. when was the deadline?
*Tomorrow*.
So tonight, in my tidy little home, I submitted "Bella the Magic Cat".
I'm learning that my mental list of "things to do" needs to get done so that I can free my mind for creativity.
