I agree, Deb!! I'm about to strap into my seat and get my words out for the day, so Laura doesn't get after me. 🙂

That's how I felt, Debra. I was so impressed with Roger's research.

Roger, I went and read your original post. What a wonderful blog! Thank you for doing the research and distilling the wisdom of the master!

I was struck by your comment about what the world would be like if Tolkien hadn't written his books. What a bland world it would be! Thank goodness that isn't the case, and a lovely incentive to continue.

Lovely to meet you, Karleene!! And we love to pay it forward here at WITS (and over at More Cowbell), because somebody inspired us enough to get to the page at some point too.

You can only start with today. That's a lesson I'm still learning all the time. 🙂

Somehow I stumbled on Writers in the Storm and then over to Jenny's More Cowbell blog. Tolkien's 10 Tips for Writers is spot on and glad I read it, but more than that, so pleased to have discovered you, Jenny Hansen. I am knocked over at seeing all you accomplish in a day. Now I have to have a serious talk with myself about having dragged my tail feathers on my latest WIP. My writing group has nudged me (big time) and my muse has been bonking me but a look at a day in Jenny's life has finally sent me back to my computer desk. thankyouthankyouthankyou I'll stay tuned to your posts to keep myself on track. xoox

Good girl, Elizabeth!! You're on fire this year, girlie. 🙂
