Lynda,
As usual your articles are an inspiration.  It has required much thought to think of just one word as the focus of this entire upcoming year. I have considered so many. 
Here it is. "Now."

Greetings on the final day of  2016.  
With the year nearly behind us, I am feeling exuberant and hope-filled  on the brink of a brand new year ahead. Do you also love new beginnings and new adventures?
Are you feeling the excitement, too?  It seems like each day brings something unique & profound. I will share just 2 new events with you in this note.

One: 
On the final week of this year, I have a new beginning already in progress. I’ll be writing articles for the American Foundation for  the Blind, via the Vision Aware Blog on the AFB site.
You can check  out  this organization at:  www.afb.org  

My first article for Vision Aware came out this week. I want to share it with you today.
I’ll have another article coming out at that site on January 3 as well. This is a nice opportunity for me to share some thoughts as we turn the page on our calendars to 2017.
I am wondering what you  are looking forward to in 2017.  I am looking forward to helping other people with sight loss or blindness – to give them hope and inspiration. 
My newest article, “Just One Word, Please!”  was published and you can read it at:  Just One Word, Please!
I invite you  to add a comment after you read my article and let me know what  “one word” you will choose.  Just one word, please! See you in 2017!


TWO: 
I’m  looking forward to doing so many different writing projects for literary magazines and the  publication of my latest book in early 2017.
I started work on Walking by Inner Vision: Stories of Light and Dreams  about 7 years ago.  It was after working for 2 years to relearn how to use a computer again after my own sight loss in 2007. The learning curve has been tremendously difficult, but day by day, I have achieved my intentions.  Now, I am proud to say I have completed the draft for the book of stories, all written after my sight loss. It is now at the editors/publishers in Denver, Colorado.  I am looking for a release of the book in early 2017.
What a thrill this is for me to stand back and see how it all came together. I’ll let you know when the book is available.

Happy New Year,

Lynda Lambert
