		<description>I don&#039;t think I could manage 6,000 words in a year :-)  Well, maybe I could, but I doubt they&#039;d be very good ones :-)</description>

		<description>60,000 pages huh? LOL (Just kidding, I know what you meant.) 

But, seriously, 6,000 words a day is definitely ambitious, but I know that if anyone can do it, you can.

You are such an inspiration!

And I hope you continue having a great time, Belle. You deserve this nice little break. :D

		<description>You blew me away with 6,000 words a day!  I would be scared to death of that goal!  Right now I am aiming to just put my fingers to a keyboard or a pen to a piece of paper every day.  I have been going through my old idea journals, too, and re-discovering some great material I had.  I am the poster girl for no follow-through so I always have a million ideas that never come to fruition.  I am working on changing it but it is going to be a slow process.  I am trying not to overwhelm myself and keep it realistic so I won&#039;t stop and drop out of the writing game once again.

I do hope you are having fun on your holiday.  Sometimes I think we forget what it used to be like when we weren&#039;t plugged into the world 24/7.  I know I do.

		<description>I was glad to read that the strain in your title didn&#039;t refer to your holiday!

Keeping my fingers crossed for HARPER.

		<description>I&#039;m glad to hear that you liked The Strain. I&#039;ve enjoyed del Toro&#039;s movies so am psyched to read a book by the same hand. 

Have a great holiday!
