I needed.a break from girly drama and depressing history. A good Hal Spacejock always lifts my spirits. Simon Haynes is creative and witty. For those who haven't looked into his books, please do. He is, also, quite the software sprite. Check out yWriter and many other programs on his site: www.Spacejock.com.au.
