Every day we get clues...if we are paying attention... which lead us closer to finding out who we are.<br /><br />That's why I love writing so much, because it mirrors real life, even fiction, maybe especially fiction.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1850079007551094639.post-41915798277728760142010-04-16T11:39:01.154-07:002010-04-16T11:39:01.154-07:00Natalie: Nice to have you back!

I think the true measure of a writer is whether you can live without it. <br /><br />Ann Marie: Faith and a lot of grunt work!<br /><br />Kathi: Glad to be of assistance.<br /><br />Stephanie: LOL. Yeah, and that's how I keep myself going when I realize how much work that book will need before it's truly ready to be sent out.<br /><br />VR: I think writers are a remarkably resilient bunch.
