Greetings Leyton I just discovered this thread. Ah, aspiring authors! I laud anyone with the tenacity and determination to see the publishing process through to a successful completion. On that thought, I could not help but notice all the encouragement that you give to others when it comes to when and how to publish. In honor of your efforts, I have dug out one of my favorite quotations of all time - one which I have used to encourage others and yes, to encourage myself. For you, Leyton: [glow=red,2,300] "Come to the edge He said. They said: We are afraid. Come to the edge He said. They came. He pushed them, and they flew..." ****Guillaume Apollinaire [/glow]

That's wonderful!
I work with adult education teachers. That is a wonderful quote for them, too. Thank you!

Well, Miss Diane, you are just most welcome!
I worked with adult trainers (and instructed "Train the Trainer") for many years and found it very rewarding. Theirs is often a thankless profession and they need the motivation too, right?
Good luck with your project! This quotation is a paraphrase of one from Maya Angelou: "You might forget what someone said or did but you never forget how they made you feel."
OK, I'm done with the quotes now. ;D
Best wishes
