I'm with you, I can write dialogue all day long but it's nervewracking trying to put together fast action and have everyone move correctly. In fact, I've just written an action scene today and I'm sure it's totally confusion. And that's even with the lights off so I didn't have to explain who was where!
Congratulations to another happy nanowrimo customer. Once you get into print you'll have several novels in the pipeline. My book could probably use a bit more action.
I wanted to e-mail you, but I could only find an old disposable e-mail address which I don't know if you're still using.
The bottom comment is yours. The first half of the manuscript is completed. Are you still interested, and do you have anything I could critique in return?
My e-mail is davidwei at optonline dot net. There are probably auto harvesters smart enough to parse that, but I get so much spam it doesn't make much difference.

It's looking very good for you. Way to go!
It is fun to do different things sometimes.
Thanks, Bevie.
A lot of what I wrote is crap but it did take me places I wouldn't have gone. The last little bit was the most fun.
You Kick-ass hog, you.
Awesome. I love action scenes. It's the only reason I kept doing them enough to the point where they didn't suck.
And congratulations on Nano! That's a huge accomplishment, regardless of the quality of those words :-)
Whirl, you always bring a smile to my face!
Adam, thank you! I didn't know I liked action scenes so that was a revelation for me!

I saw you got 50k - you rock!
Sylvia, an action scene with the lights off? Is this erotica then?
LOL - I keep meaning to try to write an erotic short story but every time I end up deciding the curtains desperately need hoovering.
It was a knife fight in a night club where the power was cut! The worst of it is, I don't know who did it.
Sylvia, you can't hoover those curtains too often. Unhoovered curtains are a disgrace.
I hope you find out who the culprit was!
go go gadget!!
Congratulations! I just saw that you're done! AWESOME JOB!!!!
Scott, LOL!
Kate, thank you. I didn't think I would make it but I did.
Thanks, Robin!
That's great, Fairy! Don't you love it when you figure out you can do something you thought you couldn't?
stacy, "Can have a go at" rather than "can do", but yes!
HOORAY! You crossed the NaNo finish line, a tremendous accomplishment. And with an action scene, to boot.
pjd, thank you!
I'm appreciate your writing skill.Please keep on working hard.^^
Thank you! Sadly, I can't read your blog but I like your profile picture.
(I know I'm late, but) Felicitaciones, Fairyhedgehog! I can't wait to see it on a shelf at a bookstore near me!
Many thanks, SH! It should be coming out in December 2057, or thereabouts.

Hi David,
I'd love to think I'd get into print one day but I'm a long way from that!
I'll email you about your book. I remember it looked really good fun!
(In case anyone is interested, if you put almost anything in front of .fairyhedgehog@recursor.net it will reach me.)
Hi there fairyhedgehog.
I discovered you through Rachelle Gardner's blog. I adore your blog name. I was born in England and think hedgehogs are special creatures.
WTG on your Nano accomplishment!
Thanks, Sharon! I stole my name from a Terry Pratchett book. I hope he won't mind.
I see you're up for blizzards in your part of the world. I'm not keen on all that snow but at least you can get some writing done.
