That's a great accomplishment, Mark -- going on 365 great accomplishments if you count your sobriety one day at a time. Congratulations.

Good for you, Mark. Half of the battle of becoming a writer is staying alive and able to work. Many great writers have failed on that half, no matter how good their writing was.

Hooray! That is, indeed, good news, Mark. Keep up the good work (temperance-wise and writing-wise).
