I'm impressed! I think it's cool when people go for their dreams...and I totally know what you mean by the low grade writer's block, Nessa (I'm totally going to get stern with myself).
These books had better be out in print in a few years! Why not? It's cool that you can actually write from experience, Frosker (I still can't get over that computer man). And those others sound really fun to research (I say I hate the research, but sometimes...well, it would be so cool to learn more about Scottish stuff, Stacer. I totally envy you--especially some of the cool stuff they did. I had some really tough Scottish ancestors and the things they did make me proud...in a disgusted kind of way).
My sister's husband comes from a clan that 'practically' wiped out our clan (those darn Campbells, they tried to kill off the McDonalds too). Anyway, when I found that out, I forbade them to marry. It was totally Romeo and Juliet. Oh, except they lived and got married. But seriously, it's amazing what a few years does to calm things down. I'm sure our ancestors would have been appalled he married into the family. We're the Black Irish and we followed the Black priest...total tangent.
So, is there a post where we can read first chapters and stuff like that? Is that the writer's group thread on that other post (I love how clear I am)There probably is...and I just haven't looked deep enough.
