Right on Elayne! (I actually first literally wrote, ‘write’, instead of right, but write is probably more fitting anyway!) I would totally agree, I really do like the majority of my writing— even the stuff that is genuinely bad— the idea or intent or thought behind the writing isn’t bad, it just most often may not be written in the most approachable or exciting way! But that doesn’t make it bad, it just means it needs works. I also subscribe to the idea that our writing isn’t for everyone. Not everyone is going to love everything we write. And that’s okay. There are plenty of creative things out there, that I don’t like that other people love. So the same would of course be true for the stuff I produce! But I always think, if I love it, that’s all that really matters! So now I put all my stuff out there, regardless, because I like it, and I do hope, really hope, that I will find someone else out there who likes it just as much as I do too.

Aww, thanks, Bridgitte! I feel the same! Hugs, creative lady! (And a very wonderful 2024!)
