tippy tapping

Have pulled out the file for the book I was pecking away at and seeing if I can actually turn it into something. It will require finding a plot, and learning how to write characters that resemble human beings. Also, I think it is asking to be turned into something where the romance is a bigger strand, instead of something I was not even sure would happen.

Of course, I then went and read a Jenny Crusie, and am now feeling like I shouldn't bother.

don't you hate when that happens? I used to want to be a writer, but I stopped trying before I ever started (even though I was encouraged by a couple of college professors), because I would be kinda pleased with something I wrote, then I'd go read something by an author I loved, then go back read what I wrote & it was so bad...

But I think you should bother (for all that I don't). You have an easy, flowing blog style of writing and I've like the (few) fics of yours that I've read.

Go for it! Jenny Cruise may write well, but she doesn't know your story. You're the only one who can tell that story in that way, and the rest of us need to read it!
