Yes, I want to work on 'the novel' project, which I actually somehow completed in first draft form earlier this year. Of course, when a writer who hasn't had a single piece of fiction published, one may scoff: "So, you are trying to be Ernest Hemingway?" I've decided to respond to these people by saying: "No, I want to be the next William Burroughs." They then say something like: "Who the heck is that?" I say: "The guy who wrote 'Naked Lunch.'" I then see a puzzled look on their face, which abruptly ends the annoying conversation. So, there you go!
