Any thoughts as to what we plan to do with all of our work that will never be published, but we love and want to share? It's nice to keep the idea of becoming big famous authors alive, but barring that, I'd like to cobble together a book of my stuff that I know will never see the light of day and give to my daughter some day. Even if its not great stuff, it's still my stuff.

You pretty much nailed my plans, John. I plan to have an outfit like Lulu.com bring it together in a few nicely bound volumes and leave it for my son. It's actually something I hope to have done before the year is out, at least with what I already have on hand that I know will only continue to sit unread.

A few years ago I gave my neices a story I had written about two dogs taking the family cats to the vet in another town to get one of the kittens treated. I made a map of where they went and used it for the cover and stapled it together.

A couple of years ago I printed out a creepy picture I had found online (It was the cover image to an indy comic called "Freaks of the Heartland"), wrote a ghost story inspired by it, and used the picture as the cover of an anthology of my ghost stories that included that story. And gave that to my oldest neice, who likes ghost stories.
