I was drawn to your writing from the first time I read your blog — I have no doubt you will succeed at your goal.

Once upon a time, I used to write and write and write, just for the fun of it. But then once I got the idea in my head that I wanted something to be published, I’ve had this mental block and I can never finish anything I start now.

Keep on writing, I look forward to your posts! :)

You have such great energy in your blog. Go for it!! And thanks for posting your interview. I do love writing also and think a lot about what kind of book I would write someday (given the chance). Well keep us updated. :)

I love your tone, sarcasm and personality. I really hope that “the book thing” falls into place for you. It’s good to realize what you want to do… I can’t say that I’ve figured it out yet!

I really enjoy your blog and your writing style.. honest truth.. I was about to comment on one last blog before I went to bed and though… well I see what Ameena is up today.

I will be keeping my eyes open for your book(s).

You are a very disciplined and dedicated person, so I have no doubt you will publish a book. Most likely sooner than later too!

I love your writing style and I definitely think you can publish a book.

Speaking of books, I have a fun new one to read! It’s been a while since I’ve had a fun book to read. Can’t wait. I have a perfect long weekend to relax and get started!
xoxo

have a wonderful weekend. Get crackin’ lady! :)

Here is what someone told me about writing.
You MUST write because you WANT to…because you LOVE it. NOt to be published.

If the goal is to be published….u might get a huge blow :) One author stated in an interview that she is currently living with her parents again and working as a waitress …and she has one book published.

It is kind of like the acting industry, dont u think…some remain waiters…some become Tom Cruise.

Plus: Paulo Altheo (wrote The Alchemist) he was not published until he was 40 years old…took him over a decade to be noticed.

but yes…i have NO confidence and that is not good. truly. YOU have a great blog…u have potential here…i fear i am on the “wrong” track with my blog…i procrastinate and i just have no “ideas” but i want to write…but i know it cant be forced…so if an idea comes, i will try it…if not…then oh well…i might be 60 before anything actually is written :)

but it is a process!

Haha, there is such a big gap between fiction and nonfiction writing. I like both, but I find that I can only do one at a time. If I’m working at a newspaper, I really don’t like writing poetry or short stories. If I’m working on a short story, I stay away from essays and features.

The important thing is not to get burned out.
