You expect it of yourself and others. After all, you know already know who you are. In your own self-assessment, you are a brave and handsome man...and a decent enough writer. Good enough to at least have earned detailed feedback from publishers, as opposed to the silent treatment. Good enough to have sparked controversy over whether or not it should be sold or given away. <br /><br />But more importantly, good enough for you. <br /><br />No one should look to find themselves in the opinion of others - they should look within themselves and then show others. That's a hard, hard lesson to learn. One that you've not only learned for yourself - but one you have exemplified. <br /><br />And we should, above all, do everything for a greater purpose than money, praise, or recognition. Do it for the love of something completely outside of ourselves - and keep it that way. Or else it cesases to honor. Another fine example you have illustrated for so many - and with such determination, beauty, and grace. <br /><br />Like your professor, you have taught others something you did not necessarily intend. And those are the best - the VERY best - lessons to teach. <br /><br />So self-publish. Entrance us. And continue to bless us with your example. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3052720384968058654.post-84117081793811347692013-01-26T19:47:29.673-08:002013-01-26T19:47:29.673-08:00I like what yor write but shouldn't amare be a...I like what yor write but shouldn't amare be amore?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3052720384968058654.post-32298751119008482932013-01-26T14:34:33.247-08:002013-01-26T14:34:33.247-08:00I've thought about your writing and what comes...I've thought about your writing and what comes to mind is a quote by Walt Whitman that I thought you might enjoy.<br /><br />'The words of my book nothing, the drift of it everything.'<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3052720384968058654.post-6977313547422956662013-01-26T13:46:49.147-08:002013-01-26T13:46:49.147-08:00That you are, that you are. . .
Glad you're n...That you are, that you are. . .<br /><br />Glad you're not sweatin' the rejects too hard. I mean look at the bestseller lists. They could dump 90% of these books without ever feeling guilty of destroying the cultural achievements of humankind. But they don't. And anyway, people like to read books that don't overstrain their braincells. Thus, a rejection letter might be a compliment actually.<br /><br />Just my effing 2 cents worth, Mr. Robinson.

The most beautiful aspect of yours is that you actually speak from the heart. You speak from experience & with that I feel it. Isn't that the point of a writer? Isn't it not only the desire to make our points but to put the reader where we were when we were? You do that. You have that ability. You have that desire & you have the experiences that many of us only dream of. <br /><br />I enjoy getting lost in your words; your world.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
