I am not anywhere near where I thought I might be because I did not know what I did not know!<br /><br />Oh how much I need to learn—from updating my dialogue writing style, understanding my POV head-hopping issues, understanding the em and en dash, managing how to set-up and maintain a blog, and learning ACFW critique loop process—but I am so willing. <br /><br />Managing this is tough since I still have a day job, but I have daily habits firmly in my schedule now. Thank you so much for this blog and your efforts to help the published writer as well as the wanna-be author like me.Melodie Beth Harrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01491194906557915679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2907737240492304428.post-71621366475094108982014-11-29T09:49:57.498-05:002014-11-29T09:49:57.498-05:00From the day I started, I believed I could and wou...From the day I started, I believed I could and would. That's what sustained me through a very long journey. You've got to believe in yourself and in the One who gave you the talent. But don't forget that talent comes with some assembly required. :)Southern-fried Fictionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17274634359952391833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2907737240492304428.post-41834324819773970162014-11-29T08:53:08.535-05:002014-11-29T08:53:08.535-05:00Ask I look back over this year, I realize that I h...Ask I look back over this year, I realize that I have definitely made steps. I am further along in my writing journey than I thought. Thank you for this reminder, Edie, to evaluate where we've come from before we declare failure. I haven't failed. I haven't succeeded in my time frame. But I've taken steps to get there. The key for me is to remember His timing is always perfect and He's never late.Henry McLaughlinhttp://www.henrymclaughlin.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2907737240492304428.post-7043493494031584412014-11-29T08:45:10.936-05:002014-11-29T08:45:10.936-05:00Thanks for the thought.
