Let's see how I measure up.
Music - My ability to play the piano was never very good and has only diminished with time.
Singing - You don't want to hear me sing.
Drawing- I can't draw. My sister and mother are artist but the talent missed me.
Dance - I took tap dance as a child. Does that count?
Modern Languages - I took French in high school. It still gives me nightmares.
Something in my air - I prefer Happy by Clinique :-)
I think I'll stop while I'm ahead. No, I would not deserve the title "accomplished" if I suddenly found myself
Speaking of accomplishments, don't forget to check out Engagement of Convenience, my upcoming Harlequin Historical. It's the story of a young woman who isn't considered accomplished by Regency standards and who isn't about to give up on creating a life for herself.

You've written a Harlequin Historical Romance?! That's wonderful! Congrats!
I feel like making more than the equivalent to a large Starbucks coffee daily is an accomplishment. Aiming low since 1978.
you're a writer,that's wonderful. Thanks for sharing.
hope you can visit my Inspire me Monday
Sounds like a great book, thank you for sharing.
Sounds like a good book. I'm not very accomplished in the Regency sense myself so I'm sure I could relate to the main character. :) My only real accomplishment in real life is being a mom, but hopefully I will be adding college graduate to that soon!
Great idea for a book! That's certainly an accomplishment. I love P&P but I probably would be a social failure with very few accomplishments. Also, there's no way I could sit around all day perfecting my needlework...
Thank you for sharing it. Congrats!!

I was an accomplished Ice Hockey player.
When I used to skate into people they would fall down and when they would skate into me they would fall down. It was a lot of fun”
I think when I became a United States Marine that was an accomplishment.
It's actually a good exercise to think about what really makes one an accomplished individual! It's so interesting how different the lists are by time period and culture. Thanks for sharing this at Booknificent Thursday!
