Writing manuscripts is more of a solitary thing until it's ready to be critiqued, so its nice to find a social outlet that involves writing. :)Nicki Elsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11412032684225126973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7454222325290313520.post-18858324745480299602011-07-27T16:58:39.624-04:002011-07-27T16:58:39.624-04:00I loved Julie and Julia, such a great story that i...I loved Julie and Julia, such a great story that it was the source of your initial inspiration.<br /><br />Thanks for your inspiring piece here at querytracker...something to hold on to on days when doubt starts to creep in.Johanna Garthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15515478890074610814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7454222325290313520.post-78520401198530976042011-07-27T14:26:09.488-04:002011-07-27T14:26:09.488-04:00Good post!

After having a pity party I'll remind myself that I'm published and it's a journey with twists and turns.

I feel frustrated with my blog now though because after the initial rush of just sharing I find myself too critical of my own life! Ha! Thank you for your words.
