I love craft books and am eager to finish this one and let it percolate in my brain.Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05383099148014297450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5523176879771875815.post-13825130779701416262010-01-05T04:16:48.316-06:002010-01-05T04:16:48.316-06:00Well, you've already heard what cold weather d...Well, you've already heard what cold weather did to me this week :)<br /><br />Maass's book sounds so good, it's been on my wishlist for a while.

Then I'll send it all off for critique and comments while I trudge out a first draft in Feb.<br /><br />Totally ucky weather... hate it.<br /><br />Can't believe I have to drive miss DD to school tomorrow in the freezing cold.
