Think you need more experience to open doors? Ever wonder if your latest slog's even worth it? I'm living proof: Every tentative step you make toward your dream presents unimaginable opportunities.
Wow! And thank you for helping all of us, your readers, keep going. Your kids are beautiful as are you!
My first novel was middle grade, too. I still believe in it, but have set it aside while I focus on another work. I've been to SCBWI conferences as well. They are a lot of fun.
Thanks for reading, Renee. I love my kids so much! They constantly amaze me, and they're such GOOD and DECENT human beings.
I love that you also wrote a middle grade novel! Wow :) If you ever want to swap manuscripts for feedback, let's make a plan. Mine is definitely in need of eyes!
First, the self-talk you did to try to set expectations / protect yourself from disappointment is all too familiar - curious if it works better for you than it does for me!
Second, that something you set out to do opened a completely different door than you expected - and it was something amazing.

SCBWI is THE BEST!
Love this so much, for two reasons:
First, the self-talk you did to try to set expectations / protect yourself from disappointment is all too familiar - curious if it works better for you than it does for me!
Second, that something you set out to do opened a completely different door than you expected - and it was something amazing.
Literally got chills reading it!
