Hello Scott and hello GITS! I found this blog about 2 weeks ago. And this is absolutely fantastic what you are doing. I just wanted to share with you all, that after a “writing streak” for 7 days I finished my first draft. Typing those two words in the end "Fade Out" was amazing. Thank you for the inspiration. /Filip B. Sweden

Woo-hoo, Filip! Time for the obligatory, celebratory dance... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4arXQRQFxBo :)

Haha! Now that made me laugh, even a nice twist in the end :) I was at a café when I finished it, and treated myself a nice cupcake for the reward. Still counts! But, yes I did the dance in my head!

Good stuff, Scott. I was raised in the Episcopal Church as well, and had heard that saying many times. Some attribute it to Lincoln. Not sure if that's true. "Even a fool is considered wise when he keeps silent." -King Solomon (Proverbs 17:28)

Now comes the fun part, rewriting.

This is a great post Scott. So true and so important. And it can be applied to just about every situation.

I'd venture to say that if a fool is wise enough to keep silent, a fool he is not!
