We truly were able to surprise our characters- their reaction were so genuine. Can't wait to see how readers enjoy Sound of Silence.

I've always wanted to put something kind and sweet into the world -- but sometimes, you don't know if what you do 'matters'? And you keep doing it, of course, but then you receive comments like this and your whole world expands a little. <3 Thank YOU for being so lovely!

And it always ends, like you, "Back to publishing!"<br /><br />I think you summed it up perfectly with "I find writing for publication to be incredibly traumatic." That's the word for it!<br /><br />Right now, I'm writing a story I may or may not ever publish. Which is SUCH a weird feeling. But who will read it?? But what's the point?? But...but...but...?? And then I realize that I can do this and that and the other and not worry if it fits certain expectations. I truly can just write what I enjoy writing! It's pretty neat!<br /><br />You've always been a lovely and kind friend--thank you so much for being you!Rainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03982612145475581351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8514464829570296159.post-26999655218973623112016-09-16T15:06:00.387-05:002016-09-16T15:06:00.387-05:00Camron! *^_^* This makes me *SO* fundamentally hap...Camron! *^_^* This makes me *SO* fundamentally happy.

I think all creative types do it. It's not that the well runs dry, but that we get worn out drawing and pouring all that creativity out for others to consume. It consumes us. <br /><br />I find writing for publication to be incredibly traumatic. Writing is fun, challenging, and fulfilling. I write whether I publish or not. Publishing stresses me, maybe because I don't like the options. Not publish? That would mean no readers. Self-publish? I can't even properly promo for a book with a publisher. Just put free reads on my blog? Other people steal them and say they wrote them, and make money. I'd rather not publish at all than be that kind of idiot. So back to publishing. My work deserves a chance to find readers. It's a gentle place to be. The stress is self-imposed, after all. :)<br /><br />Sounds like you're getting to a happier place, and I hope to see more of you in days to come! *more hugs* Tali Spencerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01580510151991448014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8514464829570296159.post-73065340839753043202016-05-10T10:01:23.207-05:002016-05-10T10:01:23.207-05:00Sorry this is so late!
