Pretty simple. Have someone read Otorongo. Have them say they liked it. Have them say they thought it was good.
Hasn't happened yet. Wonder if it ever will?
Meanwhile, guess I should be pretty grateful for what I've got. Vacation in New Mexico.
Stayed in this luxurious house.
Played golf.
Saw a rainbow.
Discovered this Jimson Weed (Datura) plant in our "backyard."
I call them Georgia O'Keefe flowers.
Took a selfie.
Checked out the Anasazi cliff dwellings.
Took pictures of rocks. :)
Hung out in the pools and the sauna.
Oh. Did I mention it was luxurious?
Also managed to read To Our Scattered Bodies Go by Philip Jose Farmer and She by H. Rider Haggard. Discovering all the fantastic writers I missed the first time around!
So I always wanted to be a successful writer. 50 years later, still haven't got there.
You don't always get what you want. But that doesn't mean you don't always like what you got.
