I kept thinking, "Great. Great advice, now I'd like to know what SHE has to say." But those authors just let the others take over. I admit it was a little disappointing. <br /><br />Another author said they didn't know how to give beginning writers advice anymore because they had forgotten all the mechanics. It had all moved from their brains to their gut. <br /><br />So I think this might not be anything to feel sad about, but I'm glad for all the advice I got out of you before you decided you didn't know anything anymore!Liesl Shurtliffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09064620851881036609noreply@blogger.com
