Oh yes. Yes indeed. To all of those.

I try not to regret my years of gaming, becuase I *did* enjoy them. But they also delayed the point where I got to do what I'd always wanted - and I'd wanted to write stories long before I discovered RPGS. Writing and running games pressed the same buttons, but they were easier, and no one rejected you.

And that comment about the lack of time, of not being able to make a book as good as you know it could and should be, because now you're on a schedule? Shit, yeah. It's good to hear someone else say this, because when I find myself cursing lack of time to do a book justice, I start to feel guilty, because I should just thank my lucky stars someone is publishing my books, shouldn't I?

This should have been my letter to myself in 1997, 2001, and 2008.
