Another Meme And Some General Stuff
Jun. 17th, 2015 08:35 pmOn the surface, this looked easy peasy. When trying to put it down onto the page, it wasn't so. Story of my life lately; writing seems to be a forgotten talent.

5) 5 Things that make you smile

In other news, I got a really nice rejection letter today which basically said they were declining because they really wanted good stories and mine didn't make the cut, but do keep trying. So I will. Yeah, they tell you how the rejection letters will pour in, but no matter how many times you tell yourself JK Rowling got rejected 100 times before stardom called, I never quite know how to combat the steady erosion at my confidence. It's growing a bit dim. Even with that much-needed boost from MISTI, I can't shake the 'why bother' feeling. And that, dear friends, is just something I can't give into. It will finish me. I can't give up. I can't. I won't.
I suppose there are some of you out there who've read my stuff and are thinking to yourself, "Talk about delusional! This girl needs a dose of reality. She's never going to make it. She doesn't have what it takes in fandom - how on earth does a talentless hack like her think she can make it in the real world?"
Yeah, sometimes I think the same thing. I don't say that out loud because I'm afraid I'll hear it. And I don't think it often, but it's a voice that's growing in volume.
