>That's great. I wrote a novel too. And it sucks too, but I love it. Writing mine was something to do besides drinking. I channeled the want to drink into the main character. Worked pretty well, until I finished the novel. So my advice would be to instantly start work on the sequel, hehe.

Good for you. Maybe you pick your times to come here carefully because I never suspected drinking was an issue for you. Great work!!!
