Hiya! So, are all Mods published authors? Do you guys work in writing related fields? How long have you been writing? Did you go to college for writing?
Is it... dumb, and unrealistic to try and get my very first piece of work published, when I never went to college... and never wrote anything before? I mean, I wrote a book. And I think its good, but that's only my opinion, and a few 'probably biased' opinions of others, who know me. That's why I joined this forum. To learn and I guess, to develop my craft.
Even as excited as I am about my book, and how obsessed and how much I love it, I still have moments where I wonder if I'm just wasting my time. That, and its hard when someone closest to me went so far as to tell my husband that she thinks nothing will ever come of my childish project... Granted, she also thought I'd never even finish writing anything. But I did. I wrote a 148,000+ word count story in what I thought was a short amount of time. Still. She's my sister, and having lack of support from family is sorta... disappointing.
