From this seed of an image emerged the 179-page novel, "See No Love," which was nominated in the Regency category for the year by The New York Times by the Romance Writers of America Club.
Cummings said, but it was one of the top four in its category.
THE NOVEL DIDN'T win the award.
She offers this advice to beginning authors:
"Just write and keep on writing. Don't let anyone discourage you, because if they can,
then you shouldn't be a writer anyway.

REASON#2 TO CALL A FRIEND:
YOUR SANITY.
College life can have an unsettling effect on your state of mind. From sitting in strange classes to living with even stranger people.
Sometimes it feels like the only person you can really talk to is yourself.
Well, you know what they say about people who talk to themselves. So call an old friend instead
Even if your friends are far away, they still know you and care about you. And they won't judge you by your choice of major or the condition of your laundry.
Calling a friend is the best therapy for the money, too. Call after 11 PM weeknights or between 11 PM Friday and 5 PM Sunday when rates are the lowest.
So call a friend or two, and tell them just how crazy it's been. You'll be surprised how sane it can make you feel.
