Sure I feel a little guilty about not spending more time with my kids, but it's not like I can sit in class with them. And I am a lot better than I used to be. Now that I've shifted priorities. We're going away on vacation soon, and gasp, I'm not bringing my wip with me. That's a huge change. ;)Stinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11415189347501942340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4513702670120363707.post-74421820555724237072011-03-18T08:47:23.291-04:002011-03-18T08:47:23.291-04:00To infinity - so true!

I think it's because I'm not trying to steal myself against so many "no" responses.<br /><br />But on my good days I have faith that if I am meant to get published I will at the right time in life for me. And in the meantime I'm going to enjoy being creative and becoming friends with so many awesome people in the writer community.Natalie Aguirrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03756087804171246660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4513702670120363707.post-63881220412016258742011-03-18T06:43:58.958-04:002011-03-18T06:43:58.958-04:00A nice post!

It's natural to have them, of course, but it's better to divert them into some more productive path!Dianne K. Salernihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16459839567235304842noreply@blogger.com
