The Writing Game

Ideas
are at
times hard to
capture into
one good piece that will
be appreciated.
It is a constant struggle
to please yourself, yet please someone
who would buy what you write. It's like your
soul and spirit takes a negative hit.

    Congratulations on your win Brandee, i liked the way u've expressed a writer's /poet's constant / troubling fear everytime he makes up his mind to write something new.."who will read? /who will buy? awww it's bad...as an adrenaline rush. And yes, it's a negative hit leading to creation at the end and that suffices the hunger, leaving one parched as ever for more...thanks for your gracious remarks on celestial.....God bless.

    Yes, the spirit does take a negative hit when you feel your work is unappreciated. But now you can rejoice, Brandee! Congratulations on your win in the contest. Love, Carolyn
