What book was that?
Seriously you pick really good books (or at least it sounds like it). Do you like to spend all your extra time reading?
Thanks for the comment I agree with you.
Check out my blog I changed it and I can't decide if I like it or not.

Wow!
I'm amazed that you ever thought you didn't like to or "couldn't" write stories, etc. These characters are great. I like the little, unusual qualities you've given to them (like "can shoot a gun"). Who would've thought??? Excellent, excellent work here, Margo. We are uncovering some hidden talents you have for creating.
I am so excited for you, and I can't wait to start reading bits and pieces of your story as we progress through the lessons. For instance, when you learn about writing beginnings that grab your reader, I hope you will write a grabber beginning for THIS story.
Nicely done!

Well, I'm off to catch the bus for jury duty--it's 6:45 am here in WA state!
