I’m starting to post the Thought of the Day in the main section of the Blog (as opposed to as a Widget). What do you think?

“I really don’t think life is about the I-could-have-beens. Life is only about the I-tried-to-do.I don’t mind the failure but I can’t imagine that I’d forgive myself if I didn’t try.”

(Today is poet Nikki Giovanni’s birthday)

Freelance writer, graphic designer, musician, foodie and Jane Austen enthusiast in Northern Baltimore County, Maryland. As a writer I enjoy both fiction and non fiction (food, travel and local interest stories.) As an advocate for the ARTS, one of my biggest passions is helping young people find a voice in all the performing arts. To that end it has been my honor to give one-on-one lessons to elementary, middle and high school students in graphic design and music. And as JANE-O I am a member of the Jane Austen Society of North America, Maryland. I acted as that group's Regional Coordinator for several years. In 2025 I sat on the JASNA AGM (Annual General Meeting) Planning Committee where I held the post of Head of User Experience. I'm also the coordinator for the Maryland Jane Austen Fest in Monkton, Maryland. This year the Fest takes place on May 1, 2 and 3rd. View all posts by ritalovestowrite
