    SimCity=Awesomesauce. Unfortunately the servers for it stink and Ive only gotten to play once! Be glad its not on Mac yet…hopefully once it is, all the hoopla will have died down and you’ll actually get to play!

    Thank you for posting the link to Pixar’s rules for writing. My 16 y/o son is an aspiring writer so I printed them off and put them on his wall. Excellent resource! Thank you for sharing!

    Hi Nicole,

    Just recently started reading this blog, but I really enjoy reading your honor roll posts and wanted to let you know that! The ones this week (especially the one on freelance journalist pay) really caught my attention. Thanks!

    So many great links!
    – The Atlantic… read that and just said out loud to myself, “Wow.”
    – Also loved Erin’s update post on slowing down, in particular that very line you quoted was the one that struck me. So right on, and such a keen distinction.
    – Pixar’s rules of storytelling- perfectly stated, perfectly said.
    Enjoy the weekend!

    I’m going to have Pixar’s rules to storytelling tattooed on my body. So good – and applicable to just about everything.

    Have a great weekend, Nicole!

    Ah, thank you for the link, sweet Nicole! I’ve been meaning to check in and tell you how GORGEOUS your kitchen is looking. Am cheering for that new fridge (and book deal!). ;)

    I’ve been working away this weekend on the book proposal (not a big deal — anyone can write a proposal), but I wanted to thank everyone for commenting and apologize for not being a part of the conversation more. I love that people are responding so well to the Honor Roll posts lately. I feel like they have shifted — in a good way — to topics that warrant more thought and more discussion, and I like that.

    A belated thanks for including that striped dress from The Limited in your spring dress roundup. After stalking it for a few days (they only have a few left, and it kept going in and out of stock), I FINALLY snagged one. I haven’t even received it yet and I already know it is going to be one of the best dresses I’ve ever owned. I’m dreaming of all of the ways I will wear it — with a beautiful, grass green floral coat for spring, metallic heels for a summer wedding, a fuzzy pink cashmere sweater for a sweet date night…I can’t wait! And between the sale price and a discount code I had, my total damage was less than $40!

    Again, thanks for sharing your good eye!
