I will always know you--on anyone's blotsite....unless of course, you make the headlines for being a professional killer. :-)The B&B retreat sounds great.

Go see. I hope I didn't sound too stupid. Don't worry I didn't mention that we knew each other.<br /><br />One of my goals is to have an all day Saturday writing retreat at a B&B I found just outside of Bmt.next year. The purpose is to Write Like You Mean It.

You Jessica Ferguson are...First lets clear the air. You Jessica Ferguson are the real "writing" deal. You do for others what no one is doing for you. That is to keep you motivated & focused. Pair up with someone & set aside time to work on or start your book.<br /><br />I also felt "who am I fooling, pretending to be a writer." Getting paid, helped me to see I was not pretending.
