There's a great deal of mind work going on before the first word appears. I think /hope you are feeling a bit better now about your writing. The downs more often than not turn into ups when you are least expecting them.

Sadly all the editor and publishing thing NEVER goes away because their main goal for the whole thing IS money so we are at odds from the start. Writers have to have serious confidence in themselves to stand up against the 'business' side of it. Stay free is my advice - it won't help pay bills but it will surely help the mental state of 'being a writer.'

Hope you ...The 'it' is definitely madness.<br /><br />Hope you get over your down patch soon, Rosalie. I swear being a writer is like riding a roller coaster. The lows are dire but the highs are amazing There's also nothing in between. You're either up or down. Addictive though, isn't it?<br /><br />JulieJulie Sykesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7780182174577095197.post-66518014249185909212012-11-15T07:53:27.536+00:002012-11-15T07:53:27.536+00:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7780182174577095197.post-35836984412273829752012-11-15T07:52:46.245+00:002012-11-15T07:52:46.245+00:00'it's what I do" - that's why I w...'it's what I do" - that's why I write.Patsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12263765378083045973noreply@blogger.com
