Boy, is that ever true. A writer told me if half your readers love what you've written, and it pisses off the other half, you've succeeded. Everything else is just fluff. :)

Yeah, and there's a lot of fluff out there. I was born and raised in the shadow of the nation's capital, a place where everyone is trying too hard to keep everyone happy. Times are changing, though, and more and more there are people willing to say what they really mean. It's refreshing. Thanks for stopping by!
