And yet I don't. I should. I want to.

If Alice like it, am sure I would too :) <BR/><BR/>Thanks for visiting my blog.

In fact, I think the first one I wrote was Les Edgerton, the man who wrote HOOKED, to tell him how helpful I found his book and that I wished I'd found it when I started writing my novel rather than when I was about halfway through.<BR/><BR/>He wrote me a delightful e-mail back, corresponded with me a few times, and sent me a signed copy of a book of his short stories. And also said that next time he came to California, he wanted to drive down to San Diego and meet me for coffee.<BR/><BR/>He also visited my website (the address was in the signature of my e-mail) and followed the links to<A HREF="www.norbertandsmedley.blogspot.com" REL="nofollow">Norbert and Smedley.</A> I was flattered that he took the time.Gayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09308862059975983327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14366870.post-89323513467848823002007-08-02T10:47:00.000-04:002007-08-02T10:47:00.000-04:00That's great your daughter has started writing aut...That's great your daughter has started writing authors.

He's a rollicking... NUT! In a wonderful way. And he LOVES getting letters and he'd love the dog drooling part - trust me.

The results:<BR/><BR/><I>You are upbeat, ambitious, and never at loss for energy. You have a lot that drives you in life. The desire to be the best, and a secret hope of fame and power. And while you definitely have a Type A personality, you are still fun to be around. You have a ton of charisma and a genuine interest in others. You are adored by many.</I>Alicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12623394887320093229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14366870.post-55397025961107765692007-08-02T06:18:00.000-04:002007-08-02T06:18:00.000-04:00I've written to authors and the majority have resp...I've written to authors and the majority have responded to my email. <BR/><BR/><I>You Are Sunrise <BR/> <BR/>You enjoy living a slow, fulfilling life.
