Just two more (very specific) bits of research I need to do and I'll be able to put the pieces together (using the software you told me about) and, now that I know what it's going to be, I'm looking forward to writing the opening scene.Bill Kirtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07675643113010061969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-387052581086893410.post-63630991560330703592010-03-14T00:31:02.511+00:002010-03-14T00:31:02.511+00:00Sounds like it's really coming together, Bill....Sounds like it's really coming together, Bill.
