RE: The Art of the Short Story

Good luck this time around with the New Yorker! Writing really becomes an obsession, well for me even though mine is weaved around food, it's just so addictive! I was the same, had not written since high school days when I did enjoy writing essays but Steemit became the outlet for that forgotten pleasure!
I've tried to write a review on Amazon for your book The Perfect Pause, but it looks like they only accept reviews from those who bought the book through them as I could not do it even though I'm registered on the site!
Great advice here @ericvancewalton, I tend to be way too impatient and impulsive so find myself editing and re-editing posts!

Thank you @lizelle! Writing does become an obsession because there's never a point when you can stop developing. I love that Steemit provides a kind of daily prompt for creating new things with the added benefit of reader interaction and feedback. This platform has made me better in almost every way.

Thanks for trying to do a review! I forgot about that rule with Amazon. I've noticed lately a lot of authors will list their book for free for a week so people can "buy" it and then write a review before they do a proper launch. I'll do that for my next book. I'm not sure if it'll be the sequel to Alarm Clock Dawn or a follow-up to The Perfect Pause.

I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
