>A couple of corrections

>I’m always nervous when I pre-post something here about events before they actually happen.

> “A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart, and can sing it back to you when you have forgotten the words.”    Isn’t that beautiful? I want to be that kind of friend – to be there when disappointments and trials come. To wipe the tears from the eyes of my friend as my own cheeks …

>Stringing Together a Novel

>For some people, novels arrive fully formed in their brains, via a dream or a story the author has been nursing for years. Broken Wings was more like a pebble here, a pearl there, a flicker of an idea that wasn’t quite flesh and bones. It actually had its origins in the stories my mother-in-law and dad told me about …
