I, too, think if I don't have a book published, I'm not really a writer. Why is that? Someone asked me if I would call someone who loved to play the guitar a musician. Of course. Well, why aren't you a writer if you write, he asked? It made me think.<br />We live in a culture that says unless you make money at something, it doesn't "count." Big sigh. Good for you for acknowledging your gifting and your desires.<br />Blessings to you as you continue to write and encourage us here through your blog. And through your other creative writing endeavors. xo Deborah (pass out those business cards!)Deborah Montgomeryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04366855994841922862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6017539925620642059.post-64710544554707683902015-04-01T06:53:24.802-06:002015-04-01T06:53:24.802-06:00Loved this post and went and visited at Inscribe. ...Loved this post and went and visited at Inscribe.

It's so physically demanding that it seems almost impossible. But if I look at it as baby steps, maybe I will be able to accomplish it all.<br /><br /><3 Have a lovely day, dear one!Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01391750532176282121noreply@blogger.com
