I signed up to write a story based on a photo in my Goodreads discussion group MM Romance.
What was I thinking?
What possessed me to do something so stupid as to think I could write a story? I’m such a fool.
This poor girl picked the photo and wrote a preamble for the (stupid: me) author who would pick her photo for the challenge.
I must have had low blood sugar or sniffed too much nail polish or something that night to think I could do this when I clicked on the photo.
I can’t let her down. If there was no one in particular involved, I’d give up. I’d write to them right now and say I was out of my mind blablabla.
I can’t do that to the photo girl. When people put up photos with their preambles they’re all happy when someone picks them.
Fuck.
I guess I’ll have to try.
Gulp.

You can do it! Trying doesn’t make you stupid at all! In fact, I felt this way when I submitted to a literary magazine, and – to my surprise – my poem got published. You have to play to win 😀 Don’t be too hard on yourself because that is what often causes writer’s block. Write away!

Thanks!!!! I really appreciate it. Still nervous tho, but I appreciate it. 🙂
Nervous is normal 🙂 It’s your mind’s way of showing how much you care about it.
