They're a bossy bunch and have learned how to wrangle my muse. I've enjoyed reading all the posts on why we write. Great contribution, Meka!

All great reasons to quit. Then there are the voices saying come back...write my tale. And I give in. Maybe someday I'll really be able to quit. <br /><br />PS _ love the husband quote.
