Outré comes from French, from the past participle of outer, "to exaggerate, to go beyond," from Latin ultra, "beyond."
Okay. Decision made. I'm going for the business plan. if ever there was a time to start up this idea I'm convinced it's now! Why I was pussy-footin' around, is beyond me. So here I go! More on that once copyrights and pending patents are in place. Suffice it to say that everyone whose expert advice I've sought in the decision making process has been bowled over by the idea and wants to contribute to the start up to be a part of it. Talk about your affirmation and encouragement! When folks want to hand over their money, it says they have a degree of faith the idea is sound and the person who will pilot the venture, in this case - Moi, is the one to head it all up. Then again, maybe it just means they're all as crazy as I am!
Just for fun and entertainment, I often read Rick Levine's astrological report for my sign. Today's provided a bit of fun and whimsey at our breakfast table, as it read thusly: SCORPIO: Wednesday, Apr 15th, 2009 -- There's no stopping you today because the emotionally restrained Capricorn Moon enables you to conserve your energy while still demonstrating your creative brilliance. You can get away with being totally unconventional now, for even your most radical behavior will somehow appear conservative -- even if it's not. Take a risk and walk on the wild side; you'll be glad you did.
On another note, Gabriella has given me the go ahead to plan the summer workshops, which delights me to no end, and Publishing Place will grow by leaps and bounds.
My attentions need to be directed to the Novel Workshop and adding more to Chapter eight. It's all good. I'm on fire just now.
The launch of Helen's Place proved a grand success over Easter, and I'm so overjoyed. I feel like my old self for the first time since she passed away in November! It's wonderful knowing she's smiling down on it with the notion she inspired this and I can see her blushing and shaking her head at having her name attached to this lovely outreach program! For those of us who will always miss her, I suppose it's a way of having her near...
