Ruth Morgan's review
of
The Llano County Mermaid Club: A Novel (Lynn and Lynda Miller Southwest Fiction Series):
"I thoroughly enjoyed this book on many levels. The character development was superb, well-differentiated, and each character showed growth during the course of the book. The relationship among all of the girls was complex, and the plot kept going wit"

“All good writers write [terrible first drafts.] This is how they end up with good second drafts and terrific third drafts. . . I know some very great writers, writers you love who write beautifully and have made a great deal of money, and not one of them sits down routinely feeling wildly enthusiastic and confident. Not one of them writes elegant first drafts. All right, one of them does, but we do not like her very much. We do not think that she has a rich inner life or that God likes her or can even stand her. (Although when I mentioned this to my priest friend Tom, he said you can safely assume you've created God in your own image when it turns out that God hates all the same people you do.”

“To all you writers, artists, musicians, creative types who want to give up: It's okay to walk away for a bit. Get your second wind. But your writing, art, music will be there, lurking over your shoulder, and it will call to you, and you will answer. And come back even stronger.”
