Hello,
I love your site. It's very smartly designed, thoughtful, and I am enjoying both your commentary on the writing life and your fiction. Kudos. It is very well done. I live in Vermont, but split my time in LA as a screenwriter. I am a published novelist too, Reap being my first novel by Viking/Penguin. I am venturing into finding readers online as well with my own site. It's not nearly as polished a site as yours as I am not so versed in site building as I am writing! But hopefully it will get better. I have a complete novel I am posting there, as well as a novel I am posting as I write it. I thought you might enjoy knowing about it. web.me.com/rickstad Keep up the great work! Well done!
