Dialogue seems so much easier for me. I have to really concentrate to get the details down right so the reader can tell what's in my mind.<BR/><BR/>Morgan Mandel<BR/>www.morganmandel.com<BR/>http://morganmandel.blogspot.com<BR/>http://acmeauthorslink.blogspot.comMorgan Mandelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10118929301591850918noreply@blogger.com
