Thank you Amie. Best of luck as you go into your own journey. I’m a big believer in stoking your creativity, because it’s truly one of the ways to let your individuality shine to the rest of humanity, and one of the big things that make the world a more lively place. Thanks for reading! 🙂

I love to write (I even have a creative writing minor), but I have never felt like I was a good enough writer. When I was taking my writing courses, I always felt like everyone was more creative and had better stories to tell. Im starting to realize that I am a writer too! Sometimes I look back at my old work and it is hard to believe that it was me that wrote it. I think we need to give ourselves more credit and be more confident in what we do. It is wonderful that you have realized this and are taking a new journey into writing!

Thanks Jane. I have fallen off the horse, and have not been writing as regularly, but I hope to get back up there again soon. Thanks for you comments and hope you stop by again..

Thanks Sandi–I carry that little journal with me all the time, and just looking at it makes me happy. Let’s hope all those creative ideas keep overflowing 🙂

Thanks Em. If you think you are, you are right? The way I look at it, if it feels good and brings joy, why not? Best of luck with your future book 😉

I write every day and have done since I was a child but find it so hard to call myself a writer. It is my dream to have a book published. I love that you have declared to the world and the Universe that you are a writer. It’s so brave. You’ve inspired me to do the same. Yaaaaay for you! Em xxx

Thanks Sue. It is funny. I love the videos that Liv has shared in our blogs that echo the same sentiment…I think it takes a very courageous person to be a creative person. Keep creating, it totally nurtures your soul like nothing else!

Thanks Christie! I hope you share your story too, because those shelves were awfully lacking way back when I needed it. I wanted something to hold in my hand. Something to look at and refer to and tell me that it would be ok. Thanks for the kind comments ! (I still feel beat up after writing, and just finished up my glass o’ red because I totally deserved it after all that button pressing!)
