I have established a covenant with my self, the writer.
Write everyday.
Cease writing to be published.
Accept that what I have to offer readers is worthy.
Keep writing but write by the internal keel that is at the heart of who I was at about age fourteen.
Why age fourteen?
The ideas which determine our character and life are implanted in mysterious fashion. When we are leaving childhood behind us they begin to shoot out. When we are seized by youth's enthusiansm for the good and the true, they burst into flower, and the fruit begins to set. If allof us could become what we were at age fourteen, what a different place this world would be. ~Albert Schweitzer from Out of My Life and Thought
Be well my fellow writers everywhere!
Susan
