PREACH! This is so true! Novels don't start out masterpieces. In fact the first copy of any story or novel is AWFUL. It's with editing that masterpieces are made.

Learning by HEART: Friendship Memory Jars
This week I wanted to share my own happiness tip. This is a modified version of the happiness jar.
My best friend Julie, who I consider to be my little sister, is moving away to Florida. I'm very happy for her, but I am also devasted that my best friend is across the country.
However, we thought of a great going away gift--but it's also a great idea for any friends or family to do with each other.
We are going to put 365 happy memories and messages on little slips of paper along with some momentos and put them into a decorated jar. That way every day we can open one up, read it, and smile or laugh. And then whenever I get to see her next we'll add more to the jar!

Week 13: Tech Tip
This week I went in and embedded YouTube videos at the end of all of my stories that are in my Storybook, including my front page! I think that the videos really add a tone and mood to the page and make it more cinematic.
Here's an example of the video on my front page:
