The knowledge gained through other writers is an invaluable tool in this shrinking business.<BR/>Kim WattersMuch Cheaper Than Therapyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02054311381186592152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6138705851348115177.post-47934446296550700082007-10-15T16:59:00.000-06:002007-10-15T16:59:00.000-06:00Thanks Gillian.Yes, I agree, the journey of writin...Thanks Gillian.<BR/><BR/>Yes, I agree, the journey of writing the book is as important as seeing it in print. Maybe more so.<BR/><BR/>You are sharing a deep part of yourself when you write, and your readers can sense it. It's kind of like someone making home-baked cookies for you--their time and trouble makes it more special than if they just grabbed something the store.<BR/><BR/>I tend to compare writing to cooking a lot. But it's kind of the same. :-)Jennifer Ashley/ Allyson James / Ashley Gardnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16501969781398343424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6138705851348115177.post-57596462468012319762007-10-15T16:47:00.000-06:002007-10-15T16:47:00.000-06:00This blog is an excellent way to start the week!Ev...This blog is an excellent way to start the week!<BR/><BR/>Everything excellent in life takes work.
