back with avengence

hey, not really been posting on here for a while. Had started working on yet another idea I had and for about 2 weeks I was writing a LOT. After that I re-read my scribbles and decided it was rubbish - not the plot, just the prose. Didn't help that I was reading Dumas at the time and made me feel like I was one of those losers on the X factor who believe they have talent but everyone else can see their deluded...

So I stopped writing for a few weeks but kept getting the itch. So for the past few days I deliberated about whether I should even bother. But I've decided that, yes, I do want to write. I love it and the first drafts can be crappy because I can go over it and perfect it later.

so here i am once again, determined I'm going to write a novel that will be publishable.

I know this is a little rambling, but since no one knows I write, this is the only place where I can say what I want about writing

so on that note, I'm happy now : )

And here I'd thought that you'd run away. Glad you're back though.

Such positivity is bound to win in the end...

And then everyone'll know that you write!

Glad you're back.
