Eight and Nine are particularly thought-provoking. Perhaps nine should have been eight - what with all the eights in it and all :) <abbr><em>Ken Armstrongs last blog post..<a href="http://kenarmstrong.blogspot.com/2008/08/looking-for-heart-of-friday-night-tom.html" rel="nofollow">Looking For The Heart of Friday Night - Tom Waits in The Phoenix Park, Dublin, August 1st 2008</a></em></abbr> Thanks.

I was in need of #8 too! Robert, I can indeed guess why, though I enjoy it when you experiment too - the contributions to Liz's recent writing challenge were a wonderful example of what can happen when you play a bit and let your words run freely in a different direction... Damien, thank you! And thanks for the encouragement, and the link :-) Much appreciated SpaceAgeSage, it's a beautiful thought isn't it? Rosa has such a knack of saying things that make us feel better about ourselves and the world. Filled with aloha :-) Rebecca, my pleasure.

Today I especially like #7 and #8. Sometimes you just have to let it rip. Preparation and targeting your audience are so important, but sometimes they can be absolutely stifling. <abbr><em>Brad Shorrs last blog post..<a href="http://www.wordsellinc.com/blog/blogs/how-i-started-blogging/" rel="nofollow">How I Started Blogging, or Ready, Fire, Aim</a></em></abbr> Hi Joanna, These tips are all very helpful.
