I'm pretty ruthless about throwing things out, except when it comes to books. I still have a few textbooks from college, too! Just yesterday I finished writing the final book in my Dragonslayer series. Even though I've known the ending since I wrote Book 1, the characters still surprised me throughout the final book, even in the final chapter!Resa Nelsonhttp://www.resanelson.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6907235505822471522.post-18264333297624384462012-02-10T16:31:20.141-05:002012-02-10T16:31:20.141-05:00I love books with dragons in it!

And once you get on that flow, you're golden! :) I'm really glad that you finished your book, Resa, because it sounds so cool!Mimi Valentinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04241457025232914551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6907235505822471522.post-10048872057612057312012-02-10T04:14:03.305-05:002012-02-10T04:14:03.305-05:00Nice post :) And cool that she is named Astrid.
