Not only that, you're a 'reader' and have been a professional one at that. . .your opinions are valid. Not always agreeable but anyone who is serious about being published should listen to your arrogant ass and take note. Good post Jeff and I don't give compliments lightly.

Not so much but I enjoy it so I do it.

It's mathematically obvious (math degree here) but not everyone gets math, or is even interested in it ;-) Thanks for this very good (FREE!) advice. Apparently I DON'T have writer's block anymore.
