   I need to stop being notified when you post stuff! I feel like I’m monopolizing the first comment slot. I’ll have better restraint next post…maybe. But just wanted to say how stoked I am at how she’s coming together!! Are you still planning on showing her off in Annapolis this October??

      We’re going to show her at the Cape Town boat show in October instead. It makes for a more relaxed trip through the islands, and not in the middle of hurricane season. But then I’ll have it in Miami in February.

         I wish I could be in Cape Town (my birthplace) to see her there. Have a cold one at the Royal Cape Yacht Club for me!

   What is IMS?

   Mind over matter has a role in chronic pain, however, just in case the mental effort to control the “unreal” pain starts to take its toll, here is an avenue of continued search. Sometimes physical effort is also required to manage the “imaginary” pain. 40 years of research has explained why contractured (stressed) muscles pressing on nerves can create a snow ball effect in the cycle of pain. Gunn modality of dry needling, (modern acupuncture), effectively presses the “reset” button for the brain/spinal/nervous system to help the body rediscover its own balance. Best regards to you and your readers’ continued good health. ; ) Sabine

   Too Scared to Publicly Leave My Real Name

   Hi, Hugh,

   I’m a traditionally pubbed debut, and I actually had the chance to (very, very briefly…I just didn’t have the guts to really introduce myself) meet you at a recent behemoth publisher party at a certain giant event. I’m commenting here, because I couldn’t find an e-mail or comment form, yet I wanted you to know how much your posts mean to me.

   I just read your post on Brenna Aubrey and it made me cry. I cried because so much was depressing and true, and I cried because so much was hopeful and encouraging.

   I’m a recent, formerly starry eyed, traditionally published debut, and everything in that post, and in so many of your others posts, resonates completely. So many writers reach for the dream of that first big five publisher contract, but few know what that contract costs, or the cold, hard realities behind every clause.

   I would list these heartbreaking realities (and the details of my own ‘case study’) but I fear the repercussions of speaking out publicly. Just know that your words found their mark, and encouraged this author more than you’ll ever, ever know.
