Your apology is accepted. I must admit, that I was allowing myself to get a little carried away last week anyway. Most likely, it was due to having seen how women keep coming back to a number of NASTY men, who I know a little bit(and I mean NASTY, in that they do NOT treat women good, are HEAVY drinkers, drug-users, not faithful, and so on... but the women seem to keep on coming their way.... REGARDLESS of how bad they use them )!!And these guys CONSTANTLY remind me of how "popular" they are, with women. Now admittedly, it is only for "another notch", but it just upsets me, that women would want a man whom they KNOW will treat them bad. Not to mention, last week was bad, overall. So, I got a bit carried away. We both did. Well, that is in the past now. So, let's "shake and be firends"so to speak, (I know this is on-line, but we can PRETEND, can't we)?

Btw-- Your profile says you are working on writing a Sci/fi novel. I wrote one, that has a good number of Sci/fi elements, so, maybe I can give you a few pointers, if you need some, to help you in your writings. NOW.. If I could only get a publisher for mine.....

I completely understand your frustration, and as someone who watched her sister in law consistently go for the trashy men (long long story that broke my heart at one point). I dont know why. I really don't.

*shakes hands heartily* as they say in Master and Commander "a glass of wine with you!"

Ive been "working" (read : thinking) on that since high school. Because of life and family, have found excuses to put it off until tomorrow. But am creeping my way back into the writing fold. Right now my thoughts are taken up with some fanfiction, but I am working with some highly talented and tough writers who are giving me wonderful inspiration. I think for me half the effort involves being with other writers, and that sort of company is amazingly small where I live.

Its been a while since I have made the effort to send anything to a publisher, but I am sure you keep up to date with the Writers Market book that is published each year. I dont know the first thing about getting an agent, but there might be names listed in that book that will lead you to one. The Writers Market is highly credible in its listings and they should not lead you astray with unscrupulous agents/publishers. Usually if one of those proves to be false, the others are the first to know about it and very swift to act on it.

I would enjoy staying in touch to discuss writing! Just ping me :D
