  1. I read that caption and it started me to thinking…..write a novel in five minutes or listen to the video and in five minutes you will know how to write a novel in five minutes. I think its the latter….I be so smart. LOL. However, for some reason the word flow in my head has not led me to the novel writing avenue as of yet. I am so into writing short stories; stories that are short, sweet and to the point. I am waiting for you to blog something on writing for children. Am I making more work for you?

    1. It’s funny, I always think of myself as a novelist, though I’ve written more children’s books. I guess it’s cause when I grow up, I want to be Danielle Steel! 🙂

      I have an idea, can you write a guest blog about being a children’s author? I can send some questions to get you started. Now, more work on your desk! 😉

      1. You can be Danielle Steel the second, if you want to. You are already walking in her footprints. Oh my, I would love to do a guest blog for you and thanks for the switch-a-roo, from your desk to mine. Just send me your questions and the deadline for it to be completed. I am sending you an email too, because I have a manuscript question that I can’t seem to get worked out, cotton pickin glitches keep popping up when I am trying to work. LOL
