I think you and I have the same idea on a few things. All of this really has just taught me that I need to rec more and pay a little bit more attention to things. It was a lot easier when it was all fresh and new, but now that work has been so busy I've been all but ignoring LJ.

I should pimp out your VERY helpful post for new writers. Remind me to do that when I get back from my trip (right now I'm currently at a hotel sneaking a few minutes of LJ before I have to go to a wedding anniversary party)

You always have very good and sound advice. I'm so glad to have you around, just so you know (oh and plus you are a FABULOUS writer ) :)
