We'll see if the ploy works eh?<BR/><BR/>Shauna, now that I'm with Lana and able to take the summers off to write for the first time in my teaching life I hope that my fortunes will improve. Hope springs eternal, I suppose. Thanks for your support.<BR/><BR/>Jon, I've seen small slivers of the renaissance with the publication of Stirling's work. I'm hoping. Thanks for ordering a copy. 2 weeks does seem like a long time. Maybe they are so backed up on orders that it's slow? ;) Yeah, that's the ticket.<BR/><BR/>Leigh Russel, thanks. Good to see you around.<BR/><BR/>Sam, ;). Thanks. I liked old Tip, but yeah he could have had a bigger part. And now it's too late.<BR/><BR/>Miladysa, Jask really grew across the course of that book. He was originally going to be only a very minor character. I hope the book gets there in time.<BR/><BR/>Bernita, you should definitely run with the idea. Let's see what your "characters" are saying. I think Rannon is irritated because I spy on all her and Ruenn's more intimate scenes. It's a hazard of the job.<BR/><BR/>Stephen Parrish, I'll check it out.<BR/><BR/>Mary Witzl, you may not like what you hear. Characters can be brutal. But in your case perhaps they all love you.Charles Gramlichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02052592247572253641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28221839.post-30243344573983861172008-05-19T07:13:00.000-05:002008-05-19T07:13:00.000-05:00Good idea, Charles -- overhearing what your charac...Good idea, Charles -- overhearing what your characters are saying about you!

You said you'd given up hope that you would ever make your living as a writer. But I think you're too young to give up. You've got another 40 to 60 years ahead of you. I know people who didn't start making good money at writing until they retired and could put more energy and time into it.Shauna Robertshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03871768714926149114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28221839.post-43839386833915318162008-05-19T01:05:00.000-05:002008-05-19T01:05:00.000-05:00Clever ploy, selling a memoir as fiction: Leaves t...Clever ploy, selling a memoir as fiction: Leaves those book critics plenty of openings to divulge the real truth. ;-)Merisihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16781937797213521146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28221839.post-35141710512598861802008-05-19T00:29:00.000-05:002008-05-19T00:29:00.000-05:00Greg, thank you very much.
