There are weeks where I...Boy, do I feel ya on this. There are weeks where I am so sick of the sound of my own "voice" that I never want to clack another word. <br />But here's the key to what you've said: "I was writing." Whether or not it's doo-doo, bad writing is so much better than no writing. And who knows, some of it may reappear, in word or thought or concept. Keep.Moving.Forward. You've demonstrated that so well here. We should all follow suit. <br /><br />DeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3572792673441604901.post-48435871309356383352012-10-10T07:46:05.227-07:002012-10-10T07:46:05.227-07:00That was a lovely comment. Comments, and people...That was a lovely comment. Comments, and people's kindness goes so far for me, don't you find that to be true? I always take them at their meaning and try not to devalue them, (like my silly brain is want to do). When I write I just write, you know, just get loads and loads of sentences down and eventually something sane comes from it. When I paint I flip the canvas/paper upside down and walk away. coming back gives me a fresh perspective on the work and reduces it to bare elements. Mistakes are easier to spot then. Do you ever send your stuff for someone to read and critique? I find that very hard to do but people tell me it helps them.

It was getting the ideas out onto paper that was the problem. I seem to be over the hump, at least for now.<br />Thanks for reading and commenting. :-) Linda G.
