Seriously, though, I have thought about it for years, and have even had a running story plot in my head. Think along the lines of Babysitters Club or Sweet Valley High...I have a handful of fairly well developed characters, I can "see" them in my head, how they would interact, the messes and teenage angst they would get themselves into, but I have no idea where to go with it. Do you? (and that's a true question.) Do I just start writing and then send it off to publishing houses in the hopes that someone picks it up? Do I need to get a literary agent? Is there a Writing for Dummies book that I should be securing from Barnes and Noble? Would you buy my book so that I have at least 10 sales?

The Great American Novel
So, if EJ James can get her kicks by writing the great American Porn British Novel, I can so make a few bucks by writing a book myself.

I'd totally buy it, but something tells me there would be a few floating around the house. Honestly I could see you sitting down and drafting a novel. You are a fantastic writer and I'm very envious of that. I couldn't write myself out of a 5th grade class.
