It is so amazing when I actually write something and then it turns out later I was right on the mark.  My novel is medieval time period piece and instead of calling someone stupid I use the term thick.  Well I sat down to watch the BBC Merlin serious and in one episode Merlin actually refers to Arthur and his knights as thick (to mean stupid.)  Of course I thought using the term thick to mean stupid was something I did.  Meanwhile it was truly used in that way and I didn’t invent it.  Not mad at all.  Just happy I was right.

Congrats on your work going so well, Michelle. Have you had anything published yet?

I've had newspaper columns published but no fiction. I'm working on something fictionally now.  This is my 3rd novel attempt and the furthest I've gotten. I think it is because I am working from a sparse outline.  The outline is giving me some bones to hang the story from.

How will you know you have reached the end if you don't know where you are going? If we want our work to be the best it can be, I think at some point everyone has to step back and read their work critically and then have others read it critically.  Readers are notoriously critical. I know I am.
