I’ve accepted another tag…

Barbara’s Meanderings has tagged me. Here are the questions: 1. If you could be any famous person, who would you be? I don’t know if I’d want their crazy, publicity-hounded lives, but if I could be the female Stephen King and write as many books as he has, make them as fantastic as he has,…

How I get Myself Unstuck from a Scene…
