Som...I have days where I go through both extremes. Sometimes I think what I'm doing is just fantastic. Sometimes, even the next day, I can just stare at what I'm writing and question if I have any business even considering a career as a writer.<BR/><BR/>Definitely don't give up on your writing, though. Don't get the feeling from what I've read in your blog that you could... and that's a good thing.<BR/><BR/>Stumbled onto your blog by way of Jenny's "Lit Soup." Best wishes with your writing.Bill, the Wildcathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16137557955170758994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5774363178370829558.post-44057820748902701722008-05-27T07:31:00.000-07:002008-05-27T07:31:00.000-07:00MOM WISDOM:Stick with your passion!!

There is a wealth of stories out there varying in their premise and way of telling the story.You've just got to remind yourself that you're able to tell your story well. <BR/><BR/>I definetly have to convince myself sometimes. Most of the time I listen to music and write.

It's funny, because when I've talked about it with Ben, I've used the exact same analogy of American Idol. <BR/><BR/>Still, you can't let those thoughts get to you. I agree with Kiersten, from what I've read, you ARE able to express those awesome ideas in writing. <BR/><BR/>And, by the way, I really do think you have an awesome story concept. It's more marketable than mine, that's for sure, and it's so creative. Seriously, you'll do good. I have a feeling. :)<BR/><BR/>Oh, and I'll read your synopsis too, Kiersten. If you'd like.Renee Collinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08170818341212519937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5774363178370829558.post-77765215697768210092008-05-23T16:36:00.000-07:002008-05-23T16:36:00.000-07:00Okay, you don't need to write my synopsis for me a...Okay, you don't need to write my synopsis for me anymore ; ) But I wouldn't mind if you'd take a look at it...Kiersten Whitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05780265683043033609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5774363178370829558.post-19805336547447790042008-05-23T08:43:00.000-07:002008-05-23T08:43:00.000-07:00Thanks for the gentle shove, feel free to give me ...Thanks for the gentle shove, feel free to give me a good kick in the pants too. <BR/><BR/>I'm almost done reading through my first draft (making sure the plot holes are filled), and I think that might be fueling some of the doubt.Natalie Whipplehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09978251567306345129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5774363178370829558.post-27425039754020594362008-05-23T08:26:00.000-07:002008-05-23T08:26:00.000-07:00Here's a big pat on the back and a gentle shove fo...Here's a big pat on the back and a gentle shove forward. Quit doubting, do your editing, and get your query out there. I haven't seen much of your writing, but what I have seen is good, and you'll certainly never know if you don't try.Kiersten Whitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05780265683043033609noreply@blogger.com
