- @sethclifford I totally understand people with security restrictions not using it. But they’re not entitled to it, either. in reply to sethclifford #

- @Westernwizard Actually, my first novel is the only one I’ve finished. The others novel-length works have stalled out just before the end. in reply to Westernwizard #
- @Westernwizard I’ve always had a fear of finishing I don’t quite understand. THE LINE MUST BE DRAWN HERE! THIS FAR! NO FARTHER! #
