...Aw, my and my 3yo are loving your happy music!! <br /><br />Also, YAY, it is great that you know why you write... Make sure you print it out and keep it where you can see it... it is so easy to forget what is so lovable about writing on the days when only slime is produced or when you're almost done with a book and you realize the revisions will be so extensive you'll pretty much have to start over from the beginning... <br /><br />and also YAY, so glad I'm part of your support system, Jon, because you KNOW you're a huge part of mine!!! <3!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03733854662944058955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1085819220508965925.post-70669784250756124612010-10-19T19:50:49.072-04:002010-10-19T19:50:49.072-04:00Great reasons to write.

I'm a new follower.<br /><br />I write because it's fulfilling and when I see a page full of words where none used to exist, and now do because of me, it's really gratifying. <br /><br />Even if it all gets cut later :)Jennifer Hillierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15783975547643539868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1085819220508965925.post-64508851560869950912010-10-19T15:27:45.294-04:002010-10-19T15:27:45.294-04:00Carol - I have a feeling I'll always turn to w...Carol - I have a feeling I'll always turn to writing, no matter the label I give myself.<br /><br />Anna - It feels good to be good at it sometimes, doesn't it?<br /><br />Paul - Yw!<br /><br />Shannon - Keeping at it, for sure!<br /><br />Candace - I sure do like to babble...
