    • I can definitely do this:
      1. You’re technically adept. Which may sound like more a statement of fact than of admiration. But since I’m not, I’m always a little amazed by those who are.
      2. You were brave to sign up to write a book in one month.
      3. You hate phones.

  25. I do have freckles. I have more of them in the spring, though.
    Thank you for the compliments. But when have you read something I’ve written?

    Reply

  26. I read things you write all the time, right here in LJ. A good writer writes well everywhere. Certainly there are degrees of effort and polish, but it’s obvious who’s got the goods.

    Reply

  27. Huh. I’ve never been accused of having the goods before.
