Today is tomorrow’s history

oude waalToday, I’ve been putting together some notes for tomorrow’s writers’ group in the library. We’ll be talking about a writer’s online presence so, today, I’m posting to my blog so that, tomorrow, I don’t look like a hypocrite when I say you really should post regularly.

Hello future me! Hello writers’ group!

And, speaking of the future me, nearly four million people have used FutureMe.org, so it may not be new to you, but I was intrigued to discover that you can send your future self an email. I have read old diaries and letters that I wrote years ago – so much intensity! – and I imagine this is the non-hoarder’s, paperless version.

What are the things you think you might need to remind your future self?

What are the things you wish you could tell your earlier self?

I found the link to Future Me with an amazing bunch of resources for writers on the toolkit page of Jenny Blake. Absolutely stellar stuff, including an incredible, free, 15 tab book marketing schedule. Thank you, Ms Blake, it’s very generous of you.
