An Appreciation

I want to take a little time-out post to throw some appreciation to the blogger who inspired me to get writing, though she doesn't know it. Mir at http://www.wouldashoulda.com/ is whip-funny and bitingly smart. And she writes well. She also raised $6,000 for breast cancer research, largely through the power of the internet and her amazing blog.

Mir writes about the challenges of raising kids, the business of writing, and the daily business of life in a way that is alternatively heart-rending and down-right hilarious. She doesn't know me from a hole in the ground, but that shouldn't stop you from visiting her blog and telling her how pretty she is. You'll be glad you did.
