Why do we care about word count?

A new idea popped into my head that quickly gaining traction and before I knew it, I had almost a full novel written in the … Read More ANNOUNCEMENT!!! NEW BOOK IN THE WORKS!!!

‘Damn’ Obstacles

“Dear Jim, I saw the updates on the book you have coming out (congrats by the way) and was wondering if you could tell us how you overcame certain obstacles.
