As we end this year I would like to say thank you to all those who have given my dreams an opportunity to blossom. Financially my venture in writing has me in the red. It started out that I was breaking even with my first book, Isle of the Faeries. Book two, Mystic North, hasn't proven to be lucrative but I felt the desire to continue the story. As I began to write the third book thoughts came that this was surely a waste of my time.
Several negative thoughts occur when venturing into writing, this is not uncommon. It can cause self-doubt in one's creativity and cause writer's block. Negative thoughts barge us from all sides, family, friends, publishers. Whether intentional or not it takes a toll on the introvert, the creative mind.
Today I reminisced about the measure of success and what it truly means. An epiphany occurred, I did succeed no matter how great or small. I published not just one but two books. No matter how great or small, or if my books were your cup of tea or not, I did it! My books are not without errors and by no means are they on the best sellers list. I had an idea and it became a reality. Many thanks to all those who have shown support to my endeavors. Always believe!!
