Hi all,

Please excuse my tardiness- things have been manic this side. So last week's article was an interesting experience: I'm not overly happy with it, but I felt it time to start changing up the tone as not to have the same predicable air. It's going to take some practice, however, as I have a very definite "flow" that I'm used to.

In addition, I found it wasn't received well, for 2 (main) reasons:
1) I come across quite preachy- people don't like being "spoken to".
2) It asks the community to take action at a personal level- enjoyment is meant to be passive.

I know this is a hunting forum, but I thought I would share my findings on writing as I know many of you (like me) are aspiring "authors" and I think there are a few things that can be learnt from this and I'd like people to learn from my errors too.

Hi Jay,

Hope you're well.

I'm headed your way in January.

Attending SHOT Show has been a long time bucket list item for me.

Finally made it happen and I'm headed to Vegas.

I know you're some distance from Vegas - but would be keen to catch up if it works out.

Have a good one.

Mark
