But let's add. "You write it, and since it was my idea, we'll split all the many profits!"
I'm over here 'coz my blog has gone missing
Happy Friday Carol :)
Summer - I'm not surprised.
Linda - I know. Sad.

Have a great weekend!
I just got one this morning - an email from an old friend. He wants me to contact a friend of his who just wrote a novel and tell him how to get published because he has no idea... Snap! Sure, let me give you the golden secret, no research involved.
Alex - Exactly. Like 'how hard could it be'.
VR - Same here.
Shirley - Only one person has asked me that one. I hear you about #1.
Laura - LOL! Non-writers don't have a clue.
Hope you'll join us for The A to Z Challenge Reflections Post on Monday May 2nd.
Lee
Clarissa - Same here.
LR - I know. I isn't as if we go looking or leave out cookies for them so they'll come.
Arlee - Don't we all.
Miss Good on Paper - We all hear them, usually way more than we would like.
Julie - Thanks.

Elizabeth - Here, too.
Stephen - Right - funny and sad at the same time. There's no right answer.
Holly - Exactly.
Tracy Jo - Go for it and don't give up. I'm glad you stopped by. You're welcome here any time.
Have a great weekend.

Thoughts in Progress
I wish #9 were true. :)
Medeia - If only. Sigh.
Maryann - Yes, that one, too.
This list made me laugh out loud, thanks! I really needed it :)
Words Crafter - Cool!
I'm published in fiction and non-fiction, both in the short form only. I'm working hard to be able to say I'm a published novelist very soon.
You can visit my website and click the links to some of my work:
I'm trying again here, but if this doesn't work either, you can copy and paste from the last line.
