Ohhhhh! We rode nothing but BMW (until we had to go to 3 wheels due to, ahem...old age)!

I agree on &#039;said&#039; - I only have one or two per book.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Great post, Laura! I see this so often in my clients&#039; books that I hope Margie has cured me of authorsplaining in my own work. I&#039;ll have to be watchful. 

Some of the comments are about my least favorite word, &quot;said.&quot; In my second immersion class with Margie, she told all of us to circle every &quot;said&quot; in the first fifty pages. I didn&#039;t have even one! I agree that word is wasted opportunity.

Love the cycle! Mine is a 1974 BMW with a sidecar. Almost too hot already in Louisiana to ride much. But it&#039;s so much fun!]]></description>
