Will you take a look at it and let me know what you think?
If you have any suggestions I'd be thrilled if you let me know and I can pass it on to the tech guy.
Well we're well into the new year now and I still haven't started to diet - I have to get some motivation from somewhere and soon! Talk to you soon, take care, Jacinta xxxx

So now its the start of a new list and hopefully some new adventures and challelges. Thanks a million for all the mail during 2007, I look forward to hearing from you all throughout 2008 - hope is a brilliant year for you. lots of love, Jacinta xxx]]>http://www.jacintamcdevitt.com/jacintas-blog/index.php?entry=entry080101-2026082008-01-01T00:00:00Z2008-01-01T00:00:00ZWRITE A BOOK IN A YEAR It is recommended by Patricia Scanlan for all writers.
I have given writing workshops for Fingal County Council and others. As a result of the popularity of these workshops and due to a demand I couldn’t keep up with, I put this hugely successful workshop into book form.
"In her usual down-to-earth and humourous way, Jacinta gives us the method and takes us step by step through character, dialogue, setting, story and plan. Her enthusiasm is infectious and before you know it you’re following her easy to follow, user-friendly steps. Before long you feel you know Jacinta – she even shares her story of when Colin Farrell signed her corset!!!!!!!
Jacinta also shares her Secret Magic Formula with us. It’s a brilliant formula but it’s a secret so I can’t tell you or she’d kill me. There is a wonderful sense of smugness in knowing this formula. The steps and the formula take us to a new world – a magical world where all things are possible and dreams do come true. It’s a world we create for ourselves.
Follow Jacinta’s steps and you WILL write a book in a year. Jacinta gives us little gems of encouragement, hope, more encouragement and practical information. This author’s enthusiasm is addictive.
Jacinta also includes pearls of wisdom from such greats as Grocho Marx, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis and Mark Twain.
THIS BOOK IS A MUST FOR ANYONE WHO WANTS TO WRITE." ]]>http://www.jacintamcdevitt.com/jacintas-blog/index.php?entry=entry080101-2024422008-01-01T00:00:00Z2008-01-01T00:00:00ZAnnouncing the ArrivalMy beautiful little grand-daughter, Alannah arrived into the world safe and sound and just in time to hang up her Christmas stocking. She weighed in a dainty morsel at 6lbs. The very chuffed parents, Alan & Marie are charmed with her. Auntie Lucy and Granny Jacinta are spoiling her rotten aided and abetted by Brian and Conor and of course her great-grandparents and great aunts and uncles.
I'm going to treasure every moment.
Lots of love to you all for a joyous Christmas and a wonderful year in 2007 xxxxx Jacinta. ]]>http://www.jacintamcdevitt.com/jacintas-blog/index.php?entry=entry061220-1014162006-12-20T00:00:00Z2006-12-20T00:00:00Z
