doing it anyway
Writers agree that even a hundred positive comments have a hard time blotting out the one negative one.
So, most of the time, it’s like this:
one life
Anyone who says they have only one life to live must not know how to read a book.
–Author Unknown
anxious
My novel in progress is about a young lady who has severe social anxiety.
She’d definitely like this app.
the path
Do I choose the less difficult path even when it’s not best?
The easy sentence instead of the perfect one?
“Having my children was the best thing I did for many reasons, including that it taught me to write a single, perfect sentence. Having a big family forced me to make every second of my writing time count. It taught me to write spare and taut, to write each word as if it were special, precious, to write a sentence that nobody else in the world had written.” –Martine Leavitt
normal
Normal day, let me be aware of the treasure you are. Let me learn from you, love you, bless you before you depart. Let me not pass you by in quest of some rare and perfect tomorrow. –Mary Jean Iron
