Dan, I can only assume that one of my loyal readers had money to burn, and chose to hire you in an attempt to save the world from my atrocious writing. Still, I am honored you chose to ignore all the warning signs after reading my blog, and decided to follow me anyway. I always felt I would have to drop loaves to get someone of your writing prowess to follow my blog, as bread crumbs never seemed to work. So let me offer you my thanks, as a bribe is out of the question—seeing as my bank account is empty. Seriously, thank you very much for following. :O)

Hi, Dan. Thanks for the follow. It’s good to meet you. I’m looking forward to reading more and curious about those angel stories. I’ve recently started heeding a call to paint angels.

Welcome JoAnne!

The Angel story is based on real events that happened to a real family. Because of that, it was a bit too long and a little less interesting than a normal book would be – because real life can be that way. So I worked with a friend to improve the tension in the story, and we did well on that, so now it’s time to do a final edit and let it loose.

It will probably need an angel painting for the rear cover…

Hey Dan, thanks for becoming a follower of my new blog, crossedeyesanddottedtees.

So I read your little bio up above; does all your publishing activity mean you don’t need to have a day job? (Other than writing, I mean, of course!)

I definitely plan to read what you have to say on finding one’s voice… I think I have about 24 voices, so maybe I have to kind of corral them into one…? Let’s see, there’s the Smart Aleck, the Wistful One, the Documentarian… hmm… is it possible or even *desirable* to write with just one voice all the time? Or maybe I’m misunderstanding the concept. I will go and read your piece and then see…

Will get back to you later!

Welcome! I think a different voice is probably preferable for different types of stories, like a comedy would have a different voice from a murder mystery, but otherwise your voice is mainly what makes your writing uniquely you.

Thank you, Robert. That’s very kind. I have some smart writer friends who tell me lots of smart things and I try to follow their advice. Time and dedication, no secret there! The more people believe in you, the more inspired you tend to be.

You rock, Dan. Jen and I both got our books handed back to us. Kinda hits you in the gut hard. Takes your breath away. Oh well, it’s for the best to make these books the best marines they can be and try to get busy writing again. Taking a day off though to digest. Wished Jen the best.

I don’t write much. So, thank you very much for the follow! This looks like a blog to come back to. When I was younger I wrote some poetry and had a dream…you know…Congrats on achieving yours!

Hi Dan, thanks for following my site, but curious to know how you stumbled across it (if you recall?) Yes, I have ulterior motives, you see I moved from WordPress.com to WordPress.org and people still are finding ways to follow me on my now inactive .com site. My new .org site is here, if you wish to follow the live site (www.justoutsidetheboxcartoon.com)

PS. New book sounds great

You happened to comment on another blog I was reading, and it struck me as interesting, so I clicked through. (I have found a few great bloggers that way.) The illustrations reminded me of Clare’s, who’s doing my next children’s book “Stinky Toe.” She’s hilarious. Glad to have you here! Thanks for the kind words about the new book!

Thank you for the likes and follow, Dan – much appreciated. I’ve just read and commented on your latest post (August 31) so I won’t repeat that. I’m looking forward to following your blog and learning a thing or two about the world of book publishing – and social media, too. Millie

It really is, softsenta. I have a romantic comedy with beta readers, an illustrated children’s novel in formatting, a sci fi thriller in its final draft, and I’m knocking out a fantasy. Oh, and a little blog that’s going gangbusters. Life is good! Thanks for joining the team. Glad to have you!

G-uno, I had a good time reading a lot of your posts this morning. I think I only clicked “like” on about 1/3 because i didn’t want you to think I was a stalker. Which I totally am now, of your site. Good stuff. Keep it up!

You have a handy blog here. I’d like to follow if you could tell me how to find the elusive button. I’d love to hear some feedback on my writing and look forward to conversing with you. =]

Good day.

If it was easy to find, it wouldn’t be elusive, Inezzen! If you are on a computer, it’ll usually appears after the post and before the comments. On a phone, it may not appear at all because of the different service providers. If you still have trouble let me know and we’ll see if somebody has an idea how it works on your provider.
