My Dad died this spring and it is definitely hard to slap on your happy marketing face (needed to write the synopsis) while in shock and grief.

It was very clear and gave me an outline from which to work.<br /><br />My ROW80 is weird this time. I think I'm about to change my goals yet again. I'm learning what does and doesn't work, however, so that's good. Sounds like you're doing great!

I have one of those, and honestly I was closer to her than my own mom growing up, so that will definitely be a tragedy I am not looking forward to experiencing.<br /><br />As for losing a parent, that pain I know all too well.
