True," why on earth and not she asked. I'm just going to make a note to myself here. Sometimes it hurts to get rid of all this writing. I need to sit down and figure out how to put it all together. Literally read the book out loud from start to finish. If you have a surprise ending, what happens to the story if you take it and put it at the beginning? I'm going to read to the next paragraph just for fun. Open yourself up to the arts in general. Right to enjoy it, whatever gets you excited. You can't be a good writer unless you're a reader. If you're going to put all of the time into writing something, you should have something to say. Hopefully, something good, something that will make the world a better place.
