I know what you mean, smartdog. I love having material published, but get very embarrassed at any plaudits.

John
I find accepting recognition for what I've done one of the hardest things to do in my life even though I crave attention.

I'm confused, Pat. Have I been below par lately? What am I saying, I have not been here lately, never mind below par.

MerryAnne
There is so much happening in my life at the moment, MerryAnne. (I'll do a quick narrative blog to show you what I mean) that I cannot concentrate on writing chapters (you should know that feeling). I am writing blogs in the early am in order to get back into the way of things since the computer crashed. I feel guilty about not writing the chapters as I've promised myself I would/will, but I can enjoy myself with the nascent sit-com cos it doesn't exist yet - and probably never will - so it has no call upon my conscience . PS: It is snowing heavily, but I suppose Canadians would call it a flurry.

LOL, ginnie. I'll try to find some of her writings this weekend. Thank you for the superlative adjective. It is a nice way to start the day. BTW; being a Canadian, you will never believe this - it is snowing

Azur
First there is the excitement, Azur, and then the constant fear of failing. And, as you say, it is constant.

Those writing pads are callinng your name! I hope this idea pans out for you. I didn't invent the idea, but I go through composition books and legal pads like well, I don't even want to think of a metaphor...
