> You are special. It's not a delusion. You really are.


And so is your writing, BSD.

I think you know in your heart that you have the talent. You demonstrate it to yourself everyday, I bet. What stops you from starting? I doubt it is the fear of failure. Were you ever ridiculed by people for your creative efforts (or lack of them)? Parents? Lack of praise?

My sister was ridiculed by my father for not committing to a hobby when she was a child. She would start something, then move on to starting something else. She just became bored with each thing because it became too easy for her. No challenge. My father told her that she was a failure. This left her with absolutely no self-esteem. My sister is a brilliant writer also. For now, she writes blurbs for trade publications and edits. She thrives on reading novels. She has never began to write one. I don't know why, but I have a guess.

I guess you could use a colleague who truly believes in you to support you and encourage you to try something that childhood messages told you that you could never do.

Just taking a shot.

;-)

Could be way off.

I believe that you know you can do it. Otherwise, I doubt you would have never entertained the idea to begin with.

Gotta go.
