Fine Ideas, but do you have more detailed info on the topic, another blog or links to other websites too.

To Mary Snow: I suppose this question is for Rebecca, because I hide from Facebook, MySpace, Twitter and the like. I’m not even sure what it all means. My advice is to sit in a room and write, daily.

I recently started a writers group on Facebook although I haven’t had a lot of experience using social networks. What suggestions would you offer to an administrator of an online writers group?

Hey Mary Jo–

I’m getting cremated, so no tombstone. But I’d like to be burried far away from any water–the Mojave, say, with “Washed Ashore” on the stone. See you soon–GS

George,
These are fantastically sarcastic. (You meant that, right?) I love your devotion to risk taking, in writing and otherwise!
“Be safe. Die, and have nothing worthwhile on your tombstone.”
I was wondering…what would you like written on your tombstone?
(I’ll “see” you on my blog on the 17th)

Hi George,

I love these! I’m still reading but had to comment on #10. You should always go for the royal flush! The same as you should always double down with an ace and a facecard against a five in blackjack.

We have to take chances with writing, or anything for that matter, to be great.
