Thanks for your coments, guys. I appreciate the support immensely.

I will definitely share, though I haven’t decided on the way I will do it. I also take some inspiration from a man named Scott Sigler – if you haven’t heard of him, you should check him out. As an independent writer, he decided to do a weekly blog serialization of his books, since the publishers weren’t taking him on. Granted, it was right around the birth of “podcasting” in 2004/2005, but it was very successful. And, it led to him getting book deals. He’s now a New York Times Bestseller.

Good luck. Writing a novel can be great, but it can suck — a lot — too. It takes a certain kind of crazy, and a whole lot of motivation. Finishing my first (if you can count my MA thesis) was rhe hardest writing I ever did.

Until I tried to do it again.

Looking forward to seeing some of it when you’re ready to share!

Sorry we missed the party, but I wasn’t feeling well this weekend and it was our anniversary. I look forward to similar feelings of accomplishment and joy from raising Kara.

Yeah, we’ll probably be in for it when they’re teenagers. But, I’m hoping there will be enough groundwork laid that he’ll ultimately respect me and know that I come from a place where I have his best interests at heart. And that will hopefully see us through the difficult years. But I don’t kid myself that we’re going to have rocky roads! haha

So true, so true. It really is the little things that make all the difference in the world, isn’t it? How can yuo ever stay mad at them when they look up at you (as you’re yelling) and say “daddy?” “yes, Amelia?” “I love you.”

we’re all going to be so screwed when they’re teenagers. But I doubt we’ll mind.

King’s book is awesome. And I’m doing my best to take his advice as well and just write. Hence, the blog. And now commenting on yours.

Thank you both for the comments! I’m obviously very partial to the little guy… He is QUITE the dinner companion, monstergirlee, let me tell you. As long as you don’t mind him sharing little bits of it occasionally.

nutmeg – that’s one feature we hope he doesn’t lose. Big Browns…
