Between the fire, the class at Carleton, and the trip to Nova Scotia, I too have been fairly self-indulgent. However, reading this brought shards of tears to prick at my eyes painfully. Whenever I read things you write on this blog, I find myself nodding my head so hard I think it will fall off, but then I don't always have a ton to say about it afterward. I just have this big yes, Yes, YES! feeling that doesn't translate well into actual words in phrase, clause, or sentence form. You have SO much to say, and I think you have to trust yourself to fail before you succeed, but moreso, trust yourself to succeed when you do succeed.<br /><br />If you had to lose your (despicable--sorry, I'm still mad at the corporate culture) job to have this epiphany, then it was worth it. I support you. I have always and will always support you. If you want to keep taking classes at the Loft to hone your skill, begin a writing group with me where we are accountable to each other, take time off from non-career job to go to Wisconsin with us to take high-level writing courses, Matt and I are with you 100%!<br /><br />School of the Arts at Rhinelander: Phone: 608-263-2790 E-mail: soa@dcs.wisc.edu We might even be able to find some extra cash to help with lodging if you needed it.<br /><br />Let me know if there's anything I can do. For you--and ONLY you--I would do a final line edit before you sent anything off, but I'd like to think I might have good feedback on other parts, too. I might be pushy in every other area of life, but I can be soft and nurturing when it comes to fiction writing.MaraCoreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17467977807281648954noreply@blogger.com
