The true inner you that is filled with an infinite amount of determination to be published. <BR/><BR/>I don't hold faith with mystical, magical powers -- too much of a hard-core realist for those whismical-wave-the-wand, fairy dust sort of things to work for me. Nope, I'm more a grit my damn teeth so hard they fracture then get it on with it. So from one determined gal to another . . . <BR/><BR/>You will sell. When the timing is right for you. Why?

Seeing those keeps me feeling hopeful that there are more to come :).Marilyn Branthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05303846770348840645noreply@blogger.com
