I am going to try to set a goal. We'll see how long I can stick to it. Maybe through your help, I will be more accountable.
I have posted to the side my progress with my books. I hope to have "Honorable Disgrace" 100% typed by the end of this month. It really is a feasible goal and I know I can do it. But the truth of the matter is I think I have a certain fear of completing my book(s) because then at that point it will be time to send them in and I wonder if I drag my feet because I fear rejection.
I know rejection is a ginormous part of the writing process, but try as I might I really worry about whether or not I really am good enough to be a writer. Well, I am a writer because I do write, but am I good enough to be a publishable writer?
During my blog surfing, I stumbled over a cute little site, "My Inner Fairy," and found just what I needed to help get over my self-pity party.
"And by the way, everything in life is writable about if you have the outgoing
guts to do it, and the imagination to improvise. The worst enemy to creativity
is self-doubt." ~Sylvia Plath
Thank you "Inner Fairy" and I will endeavor to believe in myself. Until then I'll just be happy writing!

I can't wait to see your published works! I know you are good enough and what's a litte rejection to make the final day we have success even more sweet. You can do it. Miss you!
