There won't be a useful chapter this week due to all the holiday activities, but I'd like to take this lull as a chance to thank every single one of you following this book. I've gained a lot of knowledge over the years, and and it warms my heart when I'm able to help just one person with it.
So as the new year looms before us, look ahead with optimism! The more you write, the better you will get. So keep at it. And keep it fun. It's why we started writing in the first place.
What are some things you hope for next year?
