I wish there was a way to turn our left brain off so our right brain can just run with it. At least for me, though, left brain is always there saying, "But you're ignoring the rules" or, worse, "you're just making it harder for when you revise." :-PKristie Cookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01649966564896771373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2056792574534014889.post-69276019736211683432011-04-05T15:47:27.224-06:002011-04-05T15:47:27.224-06:00Stephen King writes for one person.

I think that really simplifies things.

Being in constant demand can be draining and doing things to please others is suffocating. <br />Hope you feel better soon.Murees Dupèhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11781339206465690961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2056792574534014889.post-73175516886853107502011-04-05T14:22:30.714-06:002011-04-05T14:22:30.714-06:00Then do it.

I wrote it only for me, just because I loved the premise of it. <br /><br />There's something about selling your art, the things you're passionate about, in that it leaves you feeling cheapened and worn out sometimes.

Keep some things personal, write them just for you.Lisa J Yardehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05111498397731973454noreply@blogger.com
