I'd like to pay my respects to all the writers mentioned...and those who weren't. Industry notables or not, the act of writing and telling stories is most likely a passion that drives us and to be able to live and attain success through it is the dream of many. Though ...
It's enjoyable to see that many writers, industry notables or not, commented the article and spawned so many other suggestions. I hope this discussion continues on the original link.
