He's a wonderful teacher, and there's always so much to learn, no matter how many books an author has written. <BR/><BR/>Please know you are much appreciated, Karen.

I just know it. You have said things to me that have kept me going, in my hours of darkness. <BR/>I printed up all of the good comments from my crits from the writing conntest and tacked them to my wall a few weeks ago. <BR/><BR/>Last night I had a few comments about my writing that made me doubt myself, but one of the good comments kept popping into my head and i was able to get over my doubts. <BR/><BR/>We buoy each other up when we are down. it is the craft i think. <BR/>MichelleC.
