My college-age daughter sent it to me because she knows how I am suffering a similar hell. I have been writing my characters for over 20 years now. I finished novel number one,in what I hope to be a series, in 1993. With an agent in tow I worked on the second book, went through a divorce and for the next ten years, raised three teenagers by myself, putting down the novels to run a business so I could support my family. I too got an MFA in Creative Writing. I graduated in 2008, but have yet to finish the novel that was my creative thesis. Your article is printed and sitting on my writing desk. I am newly inspired. Thank you again!
