Great article. I really adore Stephen King's On Writing book, as well. Reading more than 40 books a years is a challenge for me and I consider myself a pretty fast reader. Congratulations on being close to the finish line! Keep me in mind to review your masterpiece when it hits Amazon? All my best to you and your writing, Britty Hey, you got the link fixed!

Even though I'm writing non-fiction this still really resonated with me. I'm in the middle of reading about 15 books and I don't finish them because I feel like I'm wasting time reading and not writing. I need to finish them, re-read Stephen King's help book and get to it. Thanks! Great post! Even though I’m writing non-fiction this still really resonated with me.

One of the only times I feel "gotten" is when I'm talking with other writers. We are a moody brood. And it's good to view those moods as a gift, as part of who we were created to be. Thanks for turning on a light. Hello from another mommy whose novel (finally almost finished with final editing!!!) took ten years to write :) I so appreciate what you’ve written here — and I agree.

I have disovered thay guilt is an infiite waste of time. It stops us from being who we really are. What seems horrible to you may be left unnoticed by others. People most admire those who feel comfortable in their own skin. When you let go of guilt, stop worrying about what others think, do what you want to do (even if that is being silent), you'll be liberated. Your honesty is admirable!

Feel enlightened and encouraged that a professional is wanting to read your work. Good on you :) Be brave, chin up and put your best foot forward :) I for one am a big fan of your writing - does that count for anything? (I too have my first WIP still in progress, up to Draft 4). Yeah for you (and yeah for me ) :) Katharine, don’t self sabotage. Feel enlightened and encouraged that a professional is wanting to read your work.
