Each one brings something different to the table - one has questions up the wazoo, which is great because it really helps you flesh out your plot and make sure that it's complete. The other is a grammar nazi. Completely. Each one has their strengths and it makes me a better writer, makes my stories stronger. Love THEM!<br /><br />What a GREAT surprise for your author buddies! And how helpful for those of us who are looking for our next book to read.
