Thank you for your nicely composed text. I also think it is special to have the first draft in my hands. Like a visualized idea. The quotes in-between this post are inspiring. Creative writing is an adventure. Can't wait to read Island Home in my next holiday.

What a pleasure to read your article. I am in in first draft mode at the moment and I am feeling that energy. I am enjoying the process. Looking forward to reading more.

Hi Libby. What a brilliant article - bursting with enthusiasm and optimism. I am halfway through my first novel (I have yet to face the challenge of finding an editor/publisher/agent) and love the way the characters come to life. Like you, I adore writing and whether my novel sees the light of day or not (I sincerely hope it does!) I am enjoying the process of writing it so much that I will stick with it and write another and another and another. Thanks for the insight into your writing world.
