I have a very hard time balancing all of these items. However, I've not gotten old and cranky without learning there is always a battle raging somewhere. deborawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16379928023984310298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2907737240492304428.post-3110136076015039472018-05-26T07:46:01.137-04:002018-05-26T07:46:01.137-04:00Never thought of my writing quite like this Ms. Ca...Never thought of my writing quite like this Ms. Cathy. Perhaps because I don't think of it as a business, but a passion. I write for a living, yes, but I believe my best writing comes from putting my heart on paper. Perhaps because I am not widely published, or known as an author for that matter, I am still naive enough to believe I can write simply for the joy it brings me, and hopefully others. Thanks for sharing a different perspective.

I am passionate about what I write and want it to effect others, yet it feels awkward when someone compliments me or intimidates me when they disagree or challenge it, causing me to second-guess the value of continuing to write. Good to know that it's not just me who feels this way, and even seasoned professionals have to overcome the same challenges.
