Perfection is the Enemy of Publication
I got started writing when I was 8. But I started on the road to publication when I read a really horrible book. I threw it across the room and though “I write better than that!” Then I thought “I write better than that!” Yes, if this bad author got published, then so could I.

The Con is so big that unless your last name is Spielberg, take a number and don’t bother holding your breath. Lots of planning will go into this event. It will be the largest event we have ever attended (and quite possibly ever will attend).
Note Taking
I’m not far enough along! I’m going to have to speed up! It’s amazing how fast your day can disappear just by getting groceries. So I need to write more each day. That’s all there is to it.
