Who is anyone to take that love from them or scoff at them for their attempts. That's just mean.

It sad the pressure we put on ourselves to succeed. Sometimes we just do something because we love it.

While being published is certainly great, if you love writing and it makes you happy, getting published is only another part of that. Someone who wrote every day of her life and was happy to do so could be just as happy as a best-selling author. Maybe happier....Stephanie Farishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10461865229341760836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5452907821353988622.post-82696058638014120252014-02-24T14:53:42.272-05:002014-02-24T14:53:42.272-05:00Elizabeth, sometimes, we just need a little remind...Elizabeth, sometimes, we just need a little reminder and sometimes we need a swift kick in the hind parts to remind us of doing what we must for our dreams.Angela Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03324366495151363782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5452907821353988622.post-14255012083449488962014-02-24T13:50:10.825-05:002014-02-24T13:50:10.825-05:00i love it! every rejection makes a better biograph...i love it! every rejection makes a better biography!! that's the best!<br />great inspirational post and congrats, sista!Tara Tylerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07587802105993889515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5452907821353988622.post-17124385147000949352014-02-24T12:51:26.517-05:002014-02-24T12:51:26.517-05:00Fantastic, Elizabeth, and congrats on your new boo...Fantastic, Elizabeth, and congrats on your new book! :)David P.
