For my writers out there -

Most writers struggle from time to time

Most get rejections, even after landing sales

Most compare themselves to others & feel certain ways....

Work on your craft. Write the stories you want to write.

Be kind to yourself. Keep going - You got this.

"You should write because you love the shape of stories and sentences and the creation of different words on a page. Writing comes from reading, and reading is the finest teacher of how to write."

One of the girls in my 9 year old’s class just said “My favorite author, other than myself, is Judy Blume,” and that’s the energy I want to see from all women writers going forward
