Your calling.

Fellow scribblers,
I wish you the greatest success in your writing careers. You deserve it. Whenever it seems like the words will no longer flow, keep tip tapping away and they will come.
For inspiration and some kick-in-the-butt encouragement and motivation, open your copy of The Audacity to be a Writer and read a few articles.
Keep scribbling! The words will come.
~Bryan
