Great thoughts. I agree, when you focus on the aftermath of writing your "great novel," you can never really get into the spirit of that novel and write from your heart.Jessie Oliveroshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06232456334069794107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7814771751990061325.post-70850909311850033972009-09-12T23:45:48.527-06:002009-09-12T23:45:48.527-06:00Great thought Rebecca!

You know what? I think you are a great...Hi Sweety!<br /><br />You know what? I think you are a great writer! I love your style. I love your voice. I love your plots! You are an awesome story teller!<br /><br />I know exactly how you feel! I have felt that way many times (with Darkspell, too!)<br /><br />You know what's funny? Everyone tries to pursue the "American Dream". To discover what you love and try to make money out of it. When we try to turn it into a career (where we put our souls out on the lines), we are exposing ourselves to the world.<br /><br />You are so right about going back to before all the hurt, confusion and heartache bloomed. I wrote something along these lines (Sept 2 here in this blog). Return to Innocence.<br /><br />I know Heavenly Father gave us the storytelling gift for a purpose. We are keen enough daughters of God to have recognized that gift with His help.<br /><br />We can turn all this into something fun! Still keep up with what you have written. Try to enjoy it. Would you prefer to go over it by fone? I would love to be here for you no matter what! I only wish we lived VERY close to each other so we could get together and throw a salsa party like Lisa Mangum did with her writing buds!<br /><br />I think we need to reward ourselves large. Equal or more to the size we put into our writing (brainstorming counts, too)! :)Elizabeth Muellerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06028099814857743134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7814771751990061325.post-45848836670371088962009-09-12T21:55:09.687-06:002009-09-12T21:55:09.687-06:00This comment has been removed by the author.Elizabeth Muellerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06028099814857743134noreply@blogger.com
