Lately I've been dying to ask my test readers how my book compares to other books they've read, but I sort of knew in the back of my mind that it wasn't a healthy question so I refrained. <br /><br />Now I can't believe I even wanted to know that.<br /><br />IT IS SO GOOD TO BE BACK!

Embracing who we are, that we are unique and bring something special to our writing that no one else can ... this is an essential part of being a writer. And gaining writer confidence. I would almost call it vision, but then I'd have to write a whole post about it... wait, maybe I will. ;)Susan Kaye Quinnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07348197999397141067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1962109490336177665.post-58374313931547944872012-02-03T20:08:41.927-08:002012-02-03T20:08:41.927-08:00It's the newest epedimic sweeping across the c...It's the newest epedimic sweeping across the country.
