Thanks Ishmael!

I bet your writings are damn good Skybird. It is always hard to judge your own work though, so don't let that skew your opinion.

Too long periods of not practicing are poison for any skill, no matter what kind of skill is referred to, and that is not different with writing.

I can certainly vouch for that, I spent a long time not doing any writing after having left working for a newspaper, and then when I went back to freelancing I was rusty as hell. These days I don't do that much freelance writing, but I guard against the skill getting rusty by writing product reviews for Avsim, just to keep the writing wheels turning when I'm not doing any other writing work. It's amazing how quick the skill drops off, but the good news is that it does come back upon re-acquaintance.
