I'm glad that I did join. I love the #myWANA group there and #wordmongering helps me knock my word count goals out of the park (though, at the moment, it's outline revision goals :D)Sonia G Medeiroshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11769867586033748973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1444687581793432522.post-79925999739905206682011-06-01T13:39:41.777-04:002011-06-01T13:39:41.777-04:00Oh my!

It took me six years to get published and a few years after that before I felt I was really telling great stories, but the journey is the fun!<br /><br />susanSusanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10319652591847155422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1444687581793432522.post-56375932734705757422011-06-01T13:38:41.844-04:002011-06-01T13:38:41.844-04:00Sonia...I can see how Twitter and Facebook could h...Sonia...I can see how Twitter and Facebook could help you...esp when it comes to building confident.

Visualizing it as real helps make it so, where as thinking 'someday' lets your brain off the hook because someday never arrives.<br />Like Cary Grant saying, “I pretended to be somebody I wanted to be until finally I became that person. Or he became me.”<br />Great topic, Susan!Jenna Kernanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15662061764799011232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1444687581793432522.post-50116431973894082212011-05-30T09:59:52.430-04:002011-05-30T09:59:52.430-04:00I love studying this stuff.
