Thank you so much! This has helped me more then I can say.
I keep forgetting that it doesn’t have to be perfect on the first try. And the thought of anyone actually reading my work gives me anxiety, haha.
Any other tips -big or small- would be much appreciated ☺️ Thanks again.

Thank you! It’s so good to know I’m not alone. The words seem to sound better in my head then they do on the page. I get so caught up in wondering if people will like it that I forget why I’m writing in the first place 🙈
I love your idea about making a random story just for fun, mind if I copy you? 😜
Oh! Thank you ☺️ Foxes are my al…[Read more]

How do you stop yourself from mashing the backspace button after every sentence or paragraph? Is it just me?
I keep wanting to delete everything and start over no matter how many times I’m told that it’s good.
Help. Thanks.

Thank you. I must admit that I haven’t been on here for awhile. I will definitely check out that article as soon as I can.
I do have a close friend who has helped me with a lot of my writing so I’ll send them a copy and see what they think.
Thank you, again 🙂

I’m working on a part of my book that’s, like, the end of the character arc. It’s what most of the book has been building up to, but….I’m just unsure of how to word it correctly. I don’t want it to be too cheesy or too “out there” in a way that turns people off. As the title of this forum suggests, I am lacking in confidence. Any tips would be…[Read more]

Hi. Thank for the ideas, they are great. I’m even thinking of a way of combining the two. 🙂

I’ve been working on my novel for around 3-4 years. I did not write from beginning to end in the traditional way, but instead wrote the parts I was inspired to write at the time.
I write using my phone and my computer. I’ll often start on my computer, but then I’ll have to go so I’ll copy/paste it to my phone and continue from there.
But now I h…[Read more]

Hi! It’s been awhile. I wanted to let you know that, if the offer still stands, I’d like to send you some of the pages of my book…
I know life is crazy for everyone, and if you can’t beta-read anymore, I completely understand. Please let me know when you get a chance. I hope you are well and safe. Thank you again…[Read more]

This article was just what I needed. Thank you. I don’t feel really brave or bold when it comes to my writing. I’ve only ever shared it with one person. But this article has given me the courage to reach farther. To strive for more. And to not let the fear of rejection control me. So, thank you again.

Hi! Yes, I’m sorry I haven’t gotten back to you yet. So rude. Look, it’s hard to explain, so I’m just going to be completely honest.
Please, please, please don’t take this the wrong way. Because of the age we live in, it can be hard to…trust someone to be who they say they are. And, while I trust this site and t…[Read more]

Sorry it’s taken me this long to get back to you.
I do have a Pinterest account. I don’t use it very often, but it’s there. Haha 🙂
That would be awesome, thank you. When you have the time, send me your username and I’ll, hopefully *crosses fingers*, get back to you soon.

Hi! It’s ok. I know how busy life can get sometimes.
That is definitely a good writing goal. Another of mine would probably be to stop doubting myself and my story.
I would love for you to beta-read for me! I plan on setting up a special email account just for that. I’m not sure if I’d want to share it on this public…[Read more]

My Christmas was awesome! Thank you for asking 🙂
What is one writing goal you want to achieve in the new year? I’d like to get my WIP into some kind of order and maybe get a few beta-readers to look it over.
Hunting does sounds like fun, although I usually hunt with a camera 😉 (I’m an avid photographer)

Merry Christmas! 🎁🎄 I hope you, and whomever you celebrated with (if you celebrated with anyone) had an amazing day.
I can’t wait for 2020. Maybe I’ll actually finish a book, haha.
Thank you. That does explain everything. I’ve never been hunting (Unless Christmas tree hunting counts? It <i>was</i> in the forest …[Read more]

I’ve been getting everything ready for Christmas and New Years. It feels like this year has gone by in a blink.
Same here! I grew up in a place where it started snowing in November and didn’t stop till May, lol. It will probably always be my favorite time of year 😀
That sounds awesome. Grandparents are the best &#x…[Read more]

I’ve been kinda busy lately. Haven’t worked on my WIP much.
This season has been great! It’s my favorite time of year 😀 *does happy dance*
Thanksgiving was great. We had some family come visit. Plus; all the food! Haha.
What about you? How was your Thanksgiving?
