Some of my fondest memories are of sitting on the beach with family and friends and watching them light up the night. Robin, I write a bit and I have about 10 stories that I've only written a few chapters of. I plan to take your advice and finish each one. I can't think of any writer whose advice I would trust more! Thanks. I live on a lake and every year on the fourth a barge floats into the middle of the bay and launches fireworks for an hour.

Robin,

I write a bit and I have about 10 stories that I’ve only written a few chapters of. I plan to take your advice and finish each one. I can’t think of any writer whose advice I would trust more! Thanks.

Truly, the only 'secret' I know to writing is to persevere. Keep writing. Try to write every day, and try to finish each story you start, even if it doesn't seem to be turning out as you planned it. You can always go back and make it better! And that is something to remember each day as you write. Your writing doesn't have to be perfect the first time. Just get it down on paper to start with. Then you can make it wonderful. Good luck! Robin Hi Caroline!

I am 59, living in southern Italy, where people blow their fingers and thumbs off on New Year's Eve, but each year it gets tamer and less dangerous. My 24-year-old daughter gave me three of your novels for my birthday, and I love your work and am very impressed with you as a writer. This blog is such a lovely reading gift. Thank you for this.
