Second Best
I just had, I think, the second best writer moment of my life. One of the ladies at my free writer’s group stayed after for a few minutes to talk with me. She encouraged me to look into publishing something short, like an article or short story, to tide me while I finish (ha ha) The Epic Novel. Encouragement is always a blessing, but what made my day–made me almost cry, actually–was as she left, she gave me a big hug and said, “You <em>must</em> do something with your writing.”
And so, I shall. 🙂

I agree–you should start with something small while you work on your bigger projects! I can't wait to read some of your work!
