This Is Not Yet Good-bye

 I did not mean to stop writing. I thought I loved writing. I thought it was my oxygen. 

But then small people came into my life, who suddenly took over everything and became the most precious beings in my universe. 

I no longer needed to write. I was finally complete.

Alright, not exactly a how to but at least some points to remember that might be helpful to those who are trying to make it through to the world of published authors. This is something that I just stumbled upon a few hours ago and decided might be worth writing a recap here in case I finally do get the nerve and the motivation to write something.    This is probably something that all aspiring fiction writers can take note of, not just thriller writers but writers of all genre.
