Welcome to the jungle. Writing is just that. Sometimes it's easy. Sometimes it's hard. A good friend reminded me of who I am. I was trying to be something I wasn't. I need to write my way. I've been trying to fit into a group instead of being true to myself. This week has been a real learning experience. Also a rough week and ego bruising. I'm not giving up. I'm going to write my story. But I'm going to to do it my way. I've dusted myself off and got up again.

New Critique Partner
I have a new critique partner. I haven't done much critiquing. The writing contest has shown me that I have a lot to learn. I'm nervous. My critique partner is good. I hope she doesn't think I'm too much trouble. Maybe she'll be a good mentor. She's a good writer. I just want to be a good writer.
