    Hey folks,

    After many years of thinking about it, recently I decided to finally put my thoughts into action and have been crafting what I hope is a rather engaging novel. It is nowhere near complete, however, I am hoping to find a few people who might be interested in making a serious appraisal of a few chapters and let me know if I catch your attention of if I need to find another day job.

    If interested, please send me a PM and I'll send something to you to read. I actually have about 150 pages done so far, but I won't do that to anyone, just a chapter or two.

    Thank you,

    Hi Biff. My daughter is a writer, too. She says to check out nanowrimo.org

    It is a writing community whose objective is encourage/enable members to write their novels. It culminates every November when many members actually write their novels. They have a lively forum community there, too. Some, like my daughter, form clubs and have meetings and pull occasional allnighters. (You can't do that with her! LOL) You could say they are the XJBIKES.com of the writing world!

    Good luck on your project!

    My daughter, the soon-to-be OTR truck driver, is also an Indy 'zine writer/artist and self-publisher.

    My dad wrote for Road-N-Track, Car & Driver and Autoweek back in the day.

    I wrote and published the Norton Club newsletter for over twelve years. And I have been know to do oh, maybe an article or two for the site.

    I'd love to read it, and I'll send it to "Give 'Em Hell" Fitz, the trucking 'Zinester.

    If she doesn't tear you a new one, you know you're doing good. PM sent.

    For those of you who responded, I do appreciate it and look forward to your responses/reviews. I am interested in more sadists or masochists if there are some out there.
