Even for simple, daily things, I tend to second-guess myself and decide to aim lower, heh. Good luck reaching all the things you're aiming for, no matter how high they are! :)Heather R.

My father was friends with the town cop..the head of the police department. A police car saw my green Ford at the town wharf and shined a huge spotlight on us making out. Knocked on the windows, flashing more lights..yeah, memories! When we rolled the window down, he said, "Ellen is that you?" He knew who it was-it was my father's car.

And it's one that ...Oh, you bring up a big one. And it's one that I've struggled with for a long time, only in reverse. So many people tell me to just submit my work to small publishers (or more frightening) *just* self pub (as if that's really easier). And then I start to worry that they might be on to something. Like maybe I should just focus on getting my stuff in print rather than getting in print with a publisher whose books are carried in Barnes and Noble. Why can't it be "Write book, pick path, publish as desired?" <br /><br />Well, I think you should stick with it. If you want your book in bookstores, then go for it.
