Great tips, although sometimes I might be taking Price’s advice a bit far – I’m working on three different stories (2 screenplays-both with the potential to be a novell) and one book (with the potential to be a screenplay). Of course originally I was working on one of them, but then a contest deadline interefered…but my mind isn’t complaining. It goes into depression when a million ideas aren’t going around in it anyway:)
P.S. John Grisham couldn’t sell A Time to Kill until after he sold The Firm. That is one good real life example of to have more than one idea/story.

I know what you mean, Pinar! I might be taking Price’s advice too far, too!
And thanks for mentioning Grisham-a GREAT example!
Great advice! Read, write and live. Got it.
