Remember, there have been many successful, drivel-ridden books that are nonetheless popular. Don't let that slow you down.

Besides, you can always make a cook book. 🙂

So here is the stealth project that you've been working on :-) I've started a number of "books" over the years and would get discouraged when I would reread what I wrote and think "who would want to read this drivel" about my many misadventures. You've kept at it. You have found your art. Stay with it :-)

Wow - that's great Charlie! It at least sounds like things are falling into place! 😀

I bet it's refreshing to just start a new baby project - no pressure on finishing, just write write write....

You are making me look bad :). I must get on either reading or writing this week and log my hours until it becomes a habit.

Whole lotta writin' going on and that, as some lady once said, is a good thing.

Your story is looking for you and trying to find you, now that you are also so actively looking for it the two of you are sure to meet up.

I haven't forgotten you, and I still intend to uphold my end of the informal email bargain, good sir!

If you ever need encouragement to write, you know where to find me. =]

I hit a big road block with editing/revising my own manuscript and decided to take Holly Lisle's How to Revise Your Novel course. She's got such fantastic free advice on her site, I couldn't help but assume the class would be worth the money. It certainly seems to be so far!

Good luck with your own manuscripts. =]
