I suspect most of us have a decent book (or two) inside of us; the challenge is getting it out. Well, and then getting somebody to read it. But hey, one challenge at a time.

Since that seminal discovery I've won a Watty, been featured a few times, become a member of the Wattpad Stars, been part of the Paid Stories Program and had a book published.

And you thought they had standards around here.
