And I'll certainly let you know if I need helping pouring that French roast of my submission manuscripts. And thanks for all your support. I could never do any of it without you! Heather, That's a great idea, keeping the characters but scrapping the story. I'll keep that one in mind for the future. I'm certain I'll need it. :) Sarah,

How could I write such crap? Is there anything redeeming? To my first novel: no. The characters are great. I'll write another novel with them. Scrap everything else. Maybe my others are salvable.
