Mostly error. The hardest learning curve for me has been the process of getting the story together without being concerned about the process or end result. That's where I got stuck and finally just filed the book away in a drawer. I just have to write and let those things take care of themselves. I couldn’t outline a novel before writing it if you held a gun to my head. I have to just write and see where it goes.(less)

From there it's a fun journey as your book begins to pop up in places that you have no idea as to how it got there. And to get the feedback from readers who are impacted in such diverse ways is pretty humbling.(less)
