We work hard at this writing stuff. We deserve a pat on the back once in while.
And who else is gonna understand anyway? Except other writer types?
The biggest things writers lack is confidence, and that starts by acknowledging that what we did is worth some praise.
Big or small, let’s talk about them all – and build that confidence we all need.
Applaud YOUR writing accomplishments for the week here.
Or praise another author friend who did something worth noting.
Imagine if you saw 10 other people telling you your accomplishment was noteworthy. What difference could that make in your writing the next week?
Let’s find out.

I have my own pat on the back! I was invited to join a group if USA Today best-selling authors for a mystery anthology they are putting out in about six months. That’s part of the reason why I made the next contest a mystery theme, as I am working on my outline for my mystery right now. And so far it looks pretty darn good!
