just needed to remind myself

something i told myself a long time ago, when i was revising Eldala...

Hopefully I will remember this the next time I ask for suggestions - the story is mine and I have the final say. I have to trust that the story in my head is good. More than that, I like it and that's all that matters.

now, pertaining to the second draft of the sequel... how to balance this with growing as a writer and being a big girl about fixing things...

Michelle, you may be reminding yourself, but your advice is good for me, too...especially the part about fixing things. I pray all is well.

It is time to pull up the big girl panties and just know what you like and here but chose it is your story!
It sounds like Jess is in just another prison. That Tat must of hut!
that's where I am at. I love that broken table! funny thought of marble the crack would have to be hit just perfectly to achieve it. That was perfectly placed righteous anger!

It is a GOOD STORY!
