Sounds like you've already done most of the hard work of self publishing (the learning) so wouldn't it work out alot better for you if you did?Jaguarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14366698097456152630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5878927.post-46942740335066187882008-05-29T13:51:00.000-04:002008-05-29T13:51:00.000-04:00the easiest thing to do with it is probably to just use them fat little fingers of yours that clearly worked to type this blog post, and type a story instead. You gotta kind of remember them, they're like blog posts, but longer and with more dialog and description.Jeremyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00440869417613722297noreply@blogger.com
