Writer’s Quest took courage
It’s time to tell your story how it works for you. There’s no limit to the way you can tell a story. They may make you think there’s a right way; it’s a lie.
If there’s a form that makes you feel seen, do it. If there’s a style that makes you finally hear yourself, do it. E. E. Cummings said, “It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are.” That goes for becoming who you are as a writer too.
Writer’s Quest is that book for me. I showed up boldly to the page. The hard part now is that I’m struggling to find ways to talk about my novel. It’s always been challenging for me, but now I’ve reached the point in my writing journey where it matters.
On the plus side, I’m practicing.
