We are just going through our first published book experience. It's been a long time since we've been back around multiples, but it seemed right for wherever we are today. I hope you don't mind if we join in. Writing fiction is too frustrating, but i admire those who can do it. There are so many minute details to think through you really have to love that kind of work to do it as consistently as you have to. The writing we do is through journaling/blogging. We write mostly about stuff that is happening in and around our daily life.

I'm in a kind of strange bind right now in that the book has finally come out and we're waiting for some kind of initial feedback. It's a bit unnerving to put yourself out there and not know the impressions of others reading it. Maybe when a few comments come in we'll let go of some of the worrying, but then that wouldn't be our style. We worry and wonder a lot. Probably what makes us good at writing. We can continue threads of thought for very long periods of writing. I couldn't imagine what our lives would be like without it. We've started almost 25 years ago and work on it every day in one form or another.

One way or another ... I'd like to thank you for having this thread. When I saw it and then read it ... I felt finally like I had some place I could go that felt like home. Thanks for that.
