Except maybe that is how I feel when I actually TRY to get in shape. Or maybe I should have allowed that typo to stick, then you might feel pressure to finish you book in case I did start dying enough and needed to read it fastpegzherehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17523804187998120031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-961530480382578444.post-2808831552635972372011-08-30T09:46:24.585-05:002011-08-30T09:46:24.585-05:00I'm a reader /want to be author too! and "...I'm a reader /want to be author too! and "The Art of Racing in the Rain" is worth staying up for! oh yeah - "unfulfilled potential" - I think my mother cursed me with that... why aren't you.... or you could do.... fill in the blank!

Also, I will own a copy of your book as well :) You remind me of a smarter, wittier version of Jen Lancaster and she became famous before she even wrote her books...her blog did all the work for her.

Then I thought it would be being really good at a job again but it turns out I am too distracted by family/home to be really good at the job so mediocre will suffice. I am definitely dying to be in kick ass shape but apparently not dying enough. I am thinking my new lifelong ambition might be to read your lst of obsession books. And of course your novel... :)pegzherehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17523804187998120031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-961530480382578444.post-7603509789673881412011-08-29T23:06:48.742-05:002011-08-29T23:06:48.742-05:00Ooh!

Try the Outlander series by Diana Gabaldon. BEST. BOOKS. EVER!!! And she's the kind of author who ruins every other author in the world for you, because she is so immensely talented. I've read the entire series about 8 times, and I can't wait for the next book to come out!! <br /><br />Ya know how there's never a perfect time to buy a home, to have kids, to yadayada...? Well, there's never going to be a perfect time for you to write that book. Don't be a perfectionist. Just start writing. I promise I'll buy it. Your mom and her two non-English speaking friends won't be the only ones to own a copy :)Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11237782009616017477noreply@blogger.com
