Ultimate Goals

Having goals is a good thing. They can help you focus your work. As a writer, I can’t say I have any lofty ultimate goals. I simply want to honor my Creator by using the ability He has given me to entertain people while continuing to get better at my craft and doing it in such a way that I can continue to write and write and write. (Yes, that’s where the business part comes in as I have to be able to afford to have the time to write.)

You’ll find in the video that Zoe’s goals are very similar to mine.

As you might have noticed, this video was pre-recorded. That is something we are thinking of doing in the fall when we start up our videos again (and there may be other changes, too). We are taking a break from them for the summer as schedules are busy, so this is the last video until probably September. We haven’t set our restart date. Of course, if you’re a blog subscriber, you’ll get a notification when that first videos posts here.

Leenie Brown

Leenie Brown fell in love with Jane Austen's works when she first read Sense and Sensibility followed immediately by Pride and Prejudice in her early teens. As the second of five daughters and an avid reader, she has always loved to see where her imagination takes her and to play with and write about the characters she meets along the way. In 2013, these two loves collided when she stumbled upon the world of Jane Austen Fan Fiction. A year later, in 2014, she began writing her own Austen-inspired stories and began publishing them in 2015. Leenie lives in Nova Scotia, Canada with her two teenage boys and her very own Mr. Brown (a wonderful mix of all the best of Darcy, Bingley and Edmund with healthy dose of the teasing Mr. Tillney and just a dash of the scolding Mr. Knightley).

  1. Hello Ladies. This was my first ever LLS video viewing. Enjoyed it very much. I can’t say why today particularly I made a point of watching, as I’d meant to now for a months. It may have been the time I felt I could carve out. I would’ve had to weigh reading time and catching up on online blogs against this. But I gathered up all my junk mail catalogues today because it is recycling pick up early early in the morning tomorrow. That way I could kind of multitask. I’m asking for blue tooth headphones for my birthday so I’m not always restricted to sitting in one place to listen. Anyway, I’m looking forward to listening in the Fall when you start up again. Can I watch older versions?

    Love you gals.

    1. I think I have all the videos we have put on YouTube on this playlist:

      We were doing it on Facebook for quite a while, but YouTube lets us expand to sharing it elsewhere more easily. I must say I loved having yesterday “off” from the video. I think that was the second Saturday in just over a year that I have not had any writing-related work to do on a Saturday, and my hubby and I were able to go out and do some things without thinking about the time 🙂 I’m happy to know you enjoyed the video.
