I always have at least one that I want to do going anyway on the side and work on those after I do the ones I actually get paid for. Sometimes I work on them while waiting to be inspired enough to do the paying jobs.<BR/><BR/>As if getting paid weren't zireldahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14792721036817871681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18373305.post-42502700459552653582007-05-31T02:31:00.001+01:002007-05-31T02:31:00.001+01:00Is there no turning back, then?

Oh, and do you have any co-authors in mind?<BR/><BR/>I like the ideas you have for the books you really want to write.

Reminds of something Tom Robbins might hallucinate into print. <BR/><BR/>I'd have to put my money on Mahatma though. Ma T was a relentless bitch, but she had a not-quite decrepit Empire on her side.
