Congrats. I sure agree w/your statement: <'Could do better' would be the comment I'd leave on my own work.> That's likely why I re-write and re-write the same opening scenes over and over, and why I hesitate to sit down to write at all. I need to change that outlook :-)Jenna Vihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16135535577744680913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8009438219696051817.post-31760354239212654502011-10-15T13:49:57.377-07:002011-10-15T13:49:57.377-07:00Hi Richard!

I attended Crimefest this year and you are right, they are big on helping new writers get their name out there. I'm going to submit to the Debut Dagger next year -- wish me luck!<br /><br />As for STOP ME, what an intriguing premise!
