I Am NOT Going To Stop Writing...
By Gloria Faye Brown Bates/aka Granny Gee
Alot of you know this past week has been most stressful, overwhelming for me. I went through a lot to get my short story published (paperback book), and on Amazon Kindle.
I made mistakes and I had to correct the same one over and over...making the process longer. I stayed stressed out for the whole week. I don't get over upset ... easily.
Today, I told Skip (my precious husband)... that I was going to quit writing, never write again. He didn't say anything. All evening I did a lot of thinking...
I came to my computer tonight... and was amazed at the people who cared to write to me ... people who follow my blogs, and my Facebook. A lot of these people have published books, also. I learned that what I have been experiencing... is normal. They've been through it, also.
Not only that... so many kind words, encouragement. I want to thank all of you who cared to take time to write me. It means the world to me. Tonight... I feel like my world is okay. Everything is alright once again.
All of you who cared... even if I didn't get to thank you personally... mean the world to me. Love, Gloria

If it makes you feel any better, Gloria. I tried publishing through Amazon many years ago and the process was so daunting, I never could figure it out.
ReplyDeleteI am so glad you are NOT going to quit writing!!! It is kind of sad that what you were going through is normal. I am like you---I wouldn't have thought that would be normal. At least now you know you are not the only writer that has been through so much stress about things. I wish you the best ever!! Love, Ms. Nancy
