Leah, if only I had thought of Nascar Harlequin novels. There must be something essentially lacking in my brain that I didn't think of that first.

You're very thoughtful, well-spoken, and interesting. Aren't those key ingredients for great writing? Now...if only you'd thought of writing <a title="Harlequin Romance Novels & Nascar" href="http://www.nytimes.com/2007/02/19/books/19nasc.html?ex=1329541200&en=f0dc68e637362274&ei=5088&partner=rssnyt&emc=rss" rel="nofollow">THIS</a> then you'd really be making some serious cash.

I had a professor who used to say "those who write well think well." If that's true (and I believe it is), it's probably because putting pen to paper (or fingers to keyboard) helps us see our thoughts more objectively. People who don't write seem to do less of that.
