    Brian, thank you for sharing your list of favorite books. I love it that there are so many on your list that I have not read, yet. It is always fun to have friends with the same tastes. However to have friends with different interests opens us up to new possibilities and growth.

The Second Beginning

Today I am beginning the rewrites on my book.   It is a bit like visiting an old friend.   I am a little apprehensive but overall thrilled.   Tonight I will work on the story board.   The time off of writing has allowed me to stop being in love with the book as it is.   It is easier to chop it up and move things around now that the story is not fresh in my mind.   I can look at it through new eyes.   Adding and subtracting the bits that will make it a stronger read.     So here I go on day one of a three month schedule for rewrites.   JL Cooper
