    Dave says, "… I’m thinking fiction might be fun. I’m thinking about dialog, and how a novel is a continuum,
    and a bunch of short stories hanging off a tree, and a few diversions
    to keep the reader on his or her toes. I’m thinking about the craft of
    writing in ways I’ve never done before." 

    Here’s a guy who has been polishing his writing every day for at least ten years… a guy with a strong voice and a sense of drama… a guy who understands structure and who has lived conflict… a guy who can make the time to do the work and who has the discipline to finish what he starts.  How can he miss?

    Interesting read … will have to explore his blog.

    For newcomers to the blogosphere, like myself, would be nice to know who the players are with thumbnail sketches. Maybe there have been too many, too many twists and turns with frequent changes for that to be possible.

    Thumbnail sketches of bloggers on my blog roll are a great idea, joared! I think I’ll run with it.
