Loved that you didn't give up and in the end you delivered!!! No one said being a writer was easy, but neither is being a human! Keep writing, it is in your blood!!!

I don't think people understand how intense that is. You are someone who spends a lot of time working the backstory, so those 100 pages for you probably a lot of off-page work. That's brave! García Marquez wrote No one writes to the colonel and then tossed in a bin.

Also, courage to be dislike is a great book. Hard to swallow but great!

Carlos! I just saw your comment. Would love to get your thoughts on Courage to be Disliked. Sometimes, I really feel like I'm the student in that book haha.

Yeah, you probably have the best insight into the grind of those 100 pages... Felt like I was in a corn maze that I couldn't get out of haha

if we ever stop playing phone tag, I'll tell you all about it! I actually heard it so it was funny but sobering at the same time. I really did enjoy it.

Yeah, man! I get it!!
