I’m interested in getting your thoughts about stuff I see and hear, quotes I read, stuff that passes as knowledge – and starting an authorey conversation.
It’s hard. It’s a little scary. But you’ll survive. Because it’s not shooting your child.

Capote was being overly dramatic. Finishing your book, publishing it, an having terrible sales – now that is taking your child out in the backyard and shotting it.
And I never enter Word Weaver. I have a copy of my own book. LOL.
He was certainly being overdramatic but it lends some emotional understanding to why certain people just can’t seem to ever finish their book. They don’t want to say goodbye to friends they’ve made there.
I understand that!
But as I always say, when I open the book, there they are again! So I learned to deal with it
Exactly! If you miss them, re-read it! Do you ever find that you’re re-reading something you wrote and thinking ‘I don’t for the life of me remember writing this’? Or is it just me?
I have now discovered that finishing writing a book is the easy part, Dan. It is the editing and publishing that is like shooting something, but I think it would be yourself and not the book child.

Sometimes I’m reading something I wrote and I’m thinking, I wrote this? I didn’t know I was this good a writer
Depends on which chid.
Ha!
You are TOUGH!
