Posted on May 11, 2004 by Susan

WRITING & REALITY?: Honesty

Posted on May 11, 2004 by Susan

I have not been totally honest with you all, and feel the need to come clean. Spinning is actually being produced by a ghostwriter. In other news, it’s 2:22 here in the eastern U.S. Checking Bloglines reveals 27 new entries … Continue reading → Continue reading →

WRITING: Refinement, Confinement, Definement, Realignment, and me.

Posted on May 8, 2004 by Susan

It has been a couple weeks since I put down the story I’ve been working on. I considered that it had been edited, rewritten, polished and practically error-free up to just within the last couple of pages, the last scene. … Continue reading → Continue reading →
