Telling off a writer can have very dire consequences.
For along time I have let others push me around. And I don't mean that I have been bullied but in the sense of I have let them think I need them. The most interesting part of life is knowing that I don't.
Ha!
It is truly fascinating examinating people and who they are, what they admit.... or don't admit to themselves. Now I am not saying or implying that I am without fault in anyway shape or form. I am flawed.
I just find it interesting seeing how people often decide that they must treat people in a certain way to make them feel a certain way to get what they want or to make themselves feel better about who they are.
Hmm... in other news... my writer's apprehension has been cured. I have started work on my first screenplay. It was scary putting the first words to paper but I had purchased the software a head of time.... oh the software *squee* What else to say.... it feels good to write again.
Recently I had someone attack my novel. It was truly interesting as they knew almost next to nothing about my novel or its contents. I almost immediately discarded the criticism as of course they knew almost next to nothing about my novel but it got me thinking..... thinking about what that person had said, and you know.... it only inspired me to write! Which is great for me, but not for that individual.
Then again I had another person comment on my work and it was a compliment this time. And truly it inspired me to try harder. To be a better writer then what I have been.
Not that I have been a bad writer.... I haven't but I see no reason to be unsuccessful.
Hm..... I am exhausted I must go get my Xray.....
