My first ...It was great to read this advice, Cora. My first book came straight from my heart because it isn't fiction. I've had comments using that very phrase and didn't really know if that was a good thing or bad. My book is about the accidental death of my 21-year-old grandson, so I tell it like it is. This blog encourages me to think of those comments as positive because it's me being me. Thank you.Jackie Taylor Zortmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05922687677280332797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6687332317991077410.post-35069034391285331132014-03-29T04:52:37.842-07:002014-03-29T04:52:37.842-07:00Thanks for your comment, Nancy.

But after a moment's thought, I decided he just wouldn't be my reader.
