But the rejection letters make me feel that at least I have evidence that I'm trying. I like reading all the different advice on writing, though, because it helps me figure out what works for me and what doesn't, like you said.

I hope that with both mothering and writing I learn to own my style without regret.

And personally, I don't think getting a publishing contract makes it all rosy and perfect. There are still struggles and hard times as well as the happy times like revealing the cover and book release time.Natalie Aguirrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03756087804171246660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5774363178370829558.post-67963759397229944252013-07-18T09:32:05.165-07:002013-07-18T09:32:05.165-07:00Great post!
