I hope you do great with the works your releasing in the next few months! Sounds like you're absolutely making the most of those "droughts."J.R.

The funny this is, some people *do* get instant success, and that makes everyone else think it'll happen to them too. ;-)<br /><br />Much appreciated, Laura!<br /><br />Thanks, John.

What was the old commercial? "We will sell no wine, before its time."<br /><br />Cathy, you don't have to wait. I never grew up, after all!<br /><br />Susan, I'll drink to that.<br /><br />Laura, that's true. And sometimes, you just need a break to let your brain sort out the next three or four things.<br /><br />Faith, I think novellas might make more sense for eReaders than for paper… then again, I remember those "double" paperbacks that had two novellas.<br /><br />Thanks, Ali. I launched <i>White Pickups</i> about 11 months after my first planned date. Those 11 months allowed things to really come together, though, and I have no regrets.<br /><br />Off to read the other posts… some now, some later tonight…Larry Kollarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08317037795075278427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12954391.post-36293315153548934362013-01-09T16:45:12.336-05:002013-01-09T16:45:12.336-05:00Congrats on the upcoming releases Larry!
