Thanks so much for the kind words, Howard! I am doing my best to enjoy the process with the novel, and I’m looking forward to publishing it soon. 🙂 I love your blog, and can’t wait to see your books out in the world, too!

Thanks, Dick! I will keep writing and “throwing those books”…lol! 🙂 You’re quite a few novels ahead of me, so I gotta catch up!

I’m with you, Jen! We’ve been conditioned to believe there’s only X number of people that can be stars. But like you said, there is always room for more at the top, and your “Dream Life or Bust” movement is teaching people the truth of that! 🙂

Thanks so much, Elaine! And it’s good to know I’m not the only one who loves lots of good dialogue in books… 🙂

There is a way to reach the top. Throw books at those peaking down from the edge. Keep writing your wonderful prose. ❤️…Dick Dahlgren.

Good luck with your novel. Enjoy the process.
