Yes, I am a writer !!!

"Yes, I am a writer". How often have you dreamed of saying this?? For me its like every time I write a blog, each time I read a novel, I dream of writing a novel of my own and getting it published. And people giving me feedback saying what a lovely story and me smiling back at them. When I dream of this I get a smile on my face. I keep wondering I will write a novel for sure and will get it published. Then suddenly something strikes my mind. I ponder what if no one likes my novel, what if I get only negative feedbacks, what if I get no appreciation for my work, What if no one buys my novel. Will I be able to handle failure, will I ever dare to write another novel again. What if people laugh at me? These thoughts just makes me wonder if I am ready to write or should I read some novels and blogs and check with people's feedback about my writing.

How often have similar thoughts cross your mind? Its high time.....we should take people's feedback but you yourself are your best judge because a person can never lie to himself or herself. So judge yourself. You can never please everyone in this world. Some will like what you write and some won't. So why is it so important to concentrate on who doesn't like what you write rather than being happy that many others like what you write, moreover everyone in the world is not a writer. You should be happy that you are writing and should be proud that you are creative and you have the caliber to write.

Appreciate yourself. There are some of the things which a person should do which gives their soul a satisfaction and pleasure, and thats the reason I write without worrying who likes and who doesn't. I write for myself.........
