Novice cat lady! I love it! :D Much less awkward than crazy-cat-lady-in-training! But I digress… this was a VERY HELPFUL read! I have all the cool things — a board, some Sharpies, time to write! I even have a kitty-cat Post-It dispenser!!! But not a single item on my board. I have a few notes in my notebook. I’ve gone through the “workshop” part-way. You’ve made it sound easy, doable even! I’m inspired and encouraged to give it another go! I love writing short stories, but I know I have at least two novels in me that want to get out!! THANK YOU!! :D
