Love your tips and encouragement! I believe if you never question your talent or work product, you are likely an arrogant and crappy writer. Sometimes it takes that writerly existential crisis to remind ourselves why we got into this biz in the first place and recommit to the work. Thanks!

I have been to this point where I honestly was not sure what to write anymore because most of my writing is about romance, but this helps me realize that people do have moments when some ideas are floating around, but nothing is being about about them.

I'm notoriously bad at buying clothes for myself. I know nothing about "good" colors, seam placement, design. But my friends put me in a dressing room and give me outfits to try on. They point out good things and bad—and why what I picked from the rack just doesn't work. I'm still learning...in my writing and my clothing purchases. Thanks for this!

You are so welcome! Sometimes we write what we most need to hear.

I learned my generosity from writers like you.

So many people get paralyzed by perfection. It can be terrifying - for sure! - but entities who will take time to give feedback are interested in what is best for your story.

Yes! Feedback is essential when nurturing any new skill.
