I'm back reading this because I loved it so much, Deb.

I was just thinking about being in Salvos book store recently and the women was asking me if I liked several successful Australian authors.

I looked at her and said,

"Not only do I not read them, but their stories are absolute drivel. To be honest, my own writing is much better. I just didn't get in when cheap and cheerfully cobbled together was a thing."

I didn't plan to say that, but I did. She probably went away and told the others there that I had tickets on myself.

I wish. I couldn't sell myself if my life depended on it.

Stick with us, Deb. Maybe you will be discovered, maybe not. But at least you have a band of people who love your writing and your amazing sense of the ridiculous. It's enough to put an assured amount of pennies in your pocket. That has to be a plus. ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’›๐Ÿ’™
