I'll just tell you what the love of my life tells me when I disclose to her my frustration: There are no such things as wasted words, for everything you put on paper is important, whether you believe so or not.Robert Duperrehttp://robertduperre.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6571667277898904726.post-15202171785335438392010-03-07T06:38:45.954-08:002010-03-07T06:38:45.954-08:00Thanks Bea!

But we do finally get passed it. <br /><br />Having a reliable, good beta reader really helped me. Someone you trust and who is willing to give you the bad WITH the good. <br /><br />If you ever need to throw ideas off me, you know where to find me. :D Just wanted you to know. <br /><br />Take care of yourself and I'll be crossing my fingers for you for the flash fiction.<br /><br />BeaDenise Baerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08432140925773614828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6571667277898904726.post-16049175415085151602010-03-04T14:00:35.667-08:002010-03-04T14:00:35.667-08:00Thank you my sweets!

But I never did think of the next phase... that makes it a little more exciting me thinks :P <br /><br />I'll cross my fingers, keep writing and I'm not really calling it a block, cause that's not all too true. <br /><br />I guess the crap will come and go as it does. <br /><br />Thanks for reading Effie! <br />hugs.Kara McElhinnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10013577325689856288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6571667277898904726.post-20596467009831469892010-03-04T13:30:13.990-08:002010-03-04T13:30:13.990-08:00Hinny, my love and friend, how has this happened? ...Hinny, my love and friend, how has this happened? I know you have the words. You do--I've read far too many words from you t think you don't. Perhaps this blockage has something to do with your next step in writing? Sometimes growth is painful and it takes tenacity and determination to get past it. You know what Uncle Jim says. Give yourself permission to write crap. Write crap, babygirl, but write. I hate seeing you blocked up, but we've had this conversation before. This is growth, hon. You're growing and it may be a painful birth, but once you emerge, you'll have taken that next step and be better. Here's hoping it comes soon.E. F.

It not only helped me see the pattern I've been following, but it also opened up an entire new story for me. <br /><br />Please don't feel bad for ever giving me a critique! It only helps! <br /><br />Thanks for the ideas. I'll have to look into it. Maybe we can start a club or something ;) <br /><br />Thanks for reading as well!Kara McElhinnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10013577325689856288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6571667277898904726.post-86644552914583215272010-03-04T12:56:42.712-08:002010-03-04T12:56:42.712-08:00awww, Hinny - I wish I didn't say what I did a...awww, Hinny - I wish I didn't say what I did about the piece you posted now :( I didn't mean to help cause you to clam up. <br /><br />If it makes you feel any better, I haven't written a word for my Shock Totem challenge - not one - I'm drawing a blank. The words keep leading me to cliche' plots and I know that won't work. <br /><br />You'll do fine, pictures sometimes help me brainstorm story ideas. Maybe you can surf some photo galleries to get the juices flowing - that's what I'm going to do.Paula Rayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03315919140323364702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6571667277898904726.post-80791221712353734022010-03-04T12:46:40.595-08:002010-03-04T12:46:40.595-08:00Thanks Shadow. :DThanks Shadow. :DKara McElhinnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10013577325689856288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6571667277898904726.post-49508675626253705242010-03-04T12:42:35.050-08:002010-03-04T12:42:35.050-08:00You will get there so keep trying.You will get there so keep trying.Shadowhttp://shadowflame1974.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.com
