Nobody with a card blog (or any blog), no matter how lousy their readership (even as bad as mine), should doubt for a second that they are a "real writer.""<br /><br />Thank you for that inspiration. Really ... thank you. You have no idea how much that statement really motivates me.<br /><br />PS: As usual, some amazing cards from Nick.Adamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05300769076865200758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-90546067802688148.post-18306533840161148382017-05-11T18:48:31.692-05:002017-05-11T18:48:31.692-05:00Who wouldn't love trading with Nick?

I had an extra of it, and all the Gwynn collectors I'd traded with in the past already had a copy, so I was happy to see that you collected Mr. Padre when I was combing through your want lists. The cards you sent were fantastic, and I'll have a post up on those soon!<br /><br />I've written and published a handful of poems/short stories, and I can honestly say that my interest in creative writing stems from the moment I started my blog five-plus years ago. It got me into the semi-daily practice of sitting down and writing for a good half-hour/hour, a routine I've carried with me into the realm of creative writing as well.Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13508921644099472101noreply@blogger.com
