Writing.....

During my writing process this weekend, I was nudged by a thought that resonated within me. When I wrote my debut Mirrored, I wrote the story for me. I wasn’t concerned about who would like it or who wouldn’t. In fact, my first thoughts as I begun writing was that I would keep the story to myself. My success was that I had completed something. After sharing the first few pages and then the first couple of chapters I was encouraged to get it published. It was such an enjoyable experience for me. Once I published and started getting to know the business (I’m still learning), I’ve become so overwhelmed with the entire process. I had doubted myself as a writer, based on other writers’ voices, their stories and their successes. I’ve decided to go back to writing for me. Writing a story that I would like to read. Using my own unique voice. I won’t be following what is trending. Some people will like it, some people won’t like it at all, but in the end, it will be my story and my success would be finishing my story written from my heart.

Until next time.......
