Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Congrats, Sox!

Sparky did what? Thank you guys! Off to find what my cousin wrought and Gud's pun...
There will be more squeeing, and more details about a week from now... I can't say much more until the ink dries. I'm alternatively really happy and exhausted.

Always Anti-fascist!
Trying to decide if I really love my novel. Because I got another note that the beginning wasn't clear/exciting enough, and then maybe thinking I don't have the skills, because I thought I already addressed that issue when the last person told me that... it would just be a different thing if I were the sort of newbie that still believed I was gonna make a million dollars. I hate to quit on another manuscript, since it's embarrassing to contemplate how many times I've been "working on a first novel", but is that a reason to stick it out? Maybe I'm just good for twenty pages at a time..."short-story writer," isn't exactly an awful thing to be, but, then again, I already have so many limits on my potential, and that would be self-imposed--Hate to do that to myself.

Erika - I know that working on another novel helped me re-see the first one a lot. (I'm still working on the first one.... ) You're an excellent writer, no matter what. And I love short stories, so it's not an awful thing to be at all.
