Because even if you NOTHING else about writing, your stuff will still be at least readable once you have scene structure down.<br /><br />Sally's been considering a lot of different options. I'm honestly not sure what she's going to do, but it's her career, so in that sense, I don't really have to know. We don't need her to work a lot, but it helps if she bring in a little money. More than that, I want her to have enough joy and time that when I get home from a long, stressful day, she can be there for me. That might sound selfish, but it's kind of the dynamic that our marriage has grown into over the past decade, and it's working, so... Danno E.

I'm sure it's harder than putting an ad on Craigslist, but it might be a worthwhile alternative.<br /><br />Snow sucks man and we have a high of -10 tomorrow. :/<br /><br />RE: Writing books...I have them all! And they were all worthwhile, but I found King's to be the most inspiring.

Clearly there's room in the market for competition, but jut as clearly, making that work would be tricky. <br /><br />I want an Acura-level gym. This is Toyota, and the alternative is Lexus. I feel like a better middle-ground is needed. Danno E.

At least you don't have to wear soothes that match the dreary gray of the walls, ground, sky, snow...<br /><br />On ythe gym thing, the cynic in me says that at the end of the day all gyms are there to make money, and the most efficient way for them to make money is with new clients because a) every new client is usually an enrollment fee in addition to a monthly, b) a staggeringly high percentage of gym members keep paying the monthlies even when they don't exercise regularly, and c) making people actually want to show is a revenue drain because it means you have to have the capacity, equipment, and staff to support the additional use. <br /><br />In short, you're right. It's a working business model.
