You say you are "scaling back" to blogging three times a week, which is actually still a lot of work! Good luck with your novel and good for you for creating a new schedule that gives you more time to work on your book.<br /><br />Cheers.JDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05234966786590125696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5998863657658685998.post-21642800727318280842012-02-01T09:55:50.625-07:002012-02-01T09:55:50.625-07:00I know, Leah.

Wow!<br /><br />@Leah: Hope you enjoyed the videos--I loved them.<br /><br />@Sonia: I can't imagine finishing a story I'd had in my head that long.
