A Letter to Mr. Nelson's Creative Writing Students,
You surround me and I applaud you. I don't know how you do it, I can never compare to any of you. The way you write captivates me and makes me want to be better.
I still haven't posted a quote to my blog because I can't choose just one. There are so many!! Really. I am surrounded by authors. If anyone is actually reading this, give yourself a pat on the back. Cause you are unreal and are an inspiration to me.
Fall Break---I actually thought about my blog posts (being out of town (its a big deal)). I wrote poems and stories and post after post after post; All to be left in my drafts. So what I ended up doing=Not being indie. a.k.a. being a tourist. a well thought out tourist mind you.
And that's all I'll ever be. It may be a disappointment to Mr. Nelson. I try and be a good writer trust me. But I just never seem to measure up. Charlotte Charles, I Aint a Doll, Sally J Skinny Love, Understanding Man, all of You. You're such good writers I don't get it. Nobody probably even reads this so who am I talking to?
Myself.
So Congratulations. You're amazing. :) Take pride in your writing.
Sincerely, A Lost but hopeful Writer.
Well said.
ReplyDeleteTrust me, you're better than you think.

ReplyDeleteI didn't tell him to. I just suggested it.
DeleteIt's not my fault if he's a sheep. He also walked out in the middle of an Anis Mojgani medley just because his friends were walking out.
I read this. You're too nice. Really.
ReplyDeleteI'm flattered. Really. Right now you're more of a writer than me. Please post your drafts. Who's to say you're not as good? Whoever says that... I'll take them all out.
ReplyDeleteI agree. I like your blog, and I'd like to be a bridesmaid at you and Ben Folds wedding.
ReplyDeleteWill you be my maid of honor? Im thinking dark purple dresses with sun flowers.
DeleteI've got it all planned out I hope bens okay with it.
