Internet was out yesterday. Teen is being particularly teenagerly. I am taking it an hour at a time. It could be worse. <br /><br />If you're talking about writing obstacles, I take it a paragraph at a time.

I don't like big muscles, but I guess I need them. I've always been a weakling. So, I'm out to find some sugar for those sour lemons:)Ink in the Bookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03117718811407968345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5261136679185070760.post-18801949378457440462012-08-07T00:01:13.815-05:002012-08-07T00:01:13.815-05:00Gggrrr!

One thing I have found out is that people can be tough over the internet because they don't have to face you. <br /><br />And you keep on the lookout for that lemonade.

I've tried so many different writing techniques, and new projects. I have one though, I have been writing for 2 years. But my writing wasn't where I wanted it to be with this project...so I backed away. It was very hard. But as of lately, I'm hitting a writing flow and it's amazing.Jessica Ruudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15059010241498328421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5261136679185070760.post-42134094305076431422012-08-06T16:41:19.357-05:002012-08-06T16:41:19.357-05:00Ooh...lemons...had a few of those lately.

I sulk...for a while...then jump back in and attack something (while trying to steer clear of people I'd like to attack ;) I try to stay focused on things I can handle and control. The sulking period sometimes lasts longer than I'd like it too... ;) Fingers crossed for you that things turn around soon!!<br /><br />As for Crystal...

I had a really hateful email that said, "Narcissism is the curse of our age, you're just another dull humorless wannabe on the interwebz but keep trying. All the Narcissistic junk always seems to end up as bloggers." It almost made me want to stop blogging and writing all together.. but I literally had to remind myself of all the people who have supported me and encouraged me every step of the way. They are all apart of me and that's why I can't quit. As far as anything else goes, when life throws me lemons, I too try to make lemonade.. if at first it's too sour, then add a little more sugar.. until it's just right! In other words, slow down, relax and quit exerting so much pressure on yourself.. everything will fall into place and in time you'll see that. Just have a little faith!C.S.Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06931727241982253089noreply@blogger.com
