For the mean time, it's good to appreciate how these characters have contributed to the writer you are now, and I'm sure they've had a significant hand in your development as a writer. :)You can call me Ant.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14503485634982702237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2287168903003077619.post-10661908127088162082010-08-21T22:03:02.100-06:002010-08-21T22:03:02.100-06:00I'm sorry to hear this, but at least you can c...I'm sorry to hear this, but at least you can come to terms with it on some level.

My first novel sat forgotten for ten years, but when the time was right, I pulled it out again. I'm so glad I did. So don't feel too heartbroken.
