My turn. lol Like Sideman, I have a creative outlet that actually pays money. I am a tutor. I also have a spouse who is disabled and have a lot of domestic chores to handle. Like penang, I find it time consuming to do the reviews needed for posting, and although, not like Janet, I don't have seven novels published, I do have four that are steadily creeping toward that day, a fifth one that is still in review, and a sixth one that changes form. I have a couple of short stories which will be thrown out the window to see if they fly soon, as well. I've noticed some old timers are gone, and thanks for the update on some of them, Sideman. I still think this site is invaluable, unless you already have a connection with an agent and an editor. (I suspect that the one novel that is on a publisher's desk will be sent to a professional editor of theirs and I'll be busy with that. They resume their operations next month. So we'll see.) We are also, increasingly, those who are left, friends, and, like the people of Alexandria, are steadfast against the walking dead out there. And Randy, I find your reviews great and by reading your stuff, you broaden my literary tastes, as I usually puke when I read anything of your genre. But not when I read you.
Hi Rachel,
Glad you don't puke when you read my stuff.:) I'll be back to reading/reviewing yours, too. Regards, Randy
