The Long and the Short of it

1st January 2014 is significant because it’s the day I had my hair cut short, hoping for further changes that year.

Apparently, this was my Facebook profile pic on this day in 2014.

To me, now, it looks as if I forgot to comb my fringe (bangs?). There are some better pics taken later that month.

Well, I’m not planning to change my profession to model of a certain age. But 1st January 2014 is significant because it’s the day I had my hair cut short, hoping for further changes that year. And they came, starting with a publishing deal with Crooked Cat for my romance novel (currently unavailable), Neither Here Nor There.

As I wrote to a friend on Facebook, that was the day when I shortened my hair and lengthened my expectations.

Do you have a significant first of January? Maybe yours is happening as I write. Do tell. And…

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Watch out for my next post, which will be about an uplifting story.
