We Don't Want to Learn from Perfect People 

<description>&lt;p&gt;We finished our joint novel!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We take you behind the scenes of the on and off year and a half long project. Topics:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Writing to delight each other&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The importance of planning&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The number one mistake we noticed in each other's writing&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Dealing with conflict&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And much more!&lt;/p&gt;
