Really, it was like the paragon of comments. But it blooped into the ether. So I will say only WRITE YOUR TRUTH. Get it down, get it out there, go go go. Your fans (and we're legion, or at least, legion-ish) are waiting....deborah quinnhttp://www.mannahattamamma.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4342173666009236462.post-1156278660608138222013-01-03T11:18:46.740-05:002013-01-03T11:18:46.740-05:00Making people laugh (and think) is a mighty fine t...Making people laugh (and think) is a mighty fine talent, Ms Suni, and don't downplay it. You have more wit & insight in your smallest finger than most do in all their fingers combined. So write your truth, lady. Stephen King says the first rule of writing is Get Your Ass in the Chair; so there's that. Anne Lamott says focus on the one-inch picture frame: all you have to do is write deborah quinnhttp://www.mannahattamamma.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4342173666009236462.post-37610405261585100832012-12-25T22:57:32.568-05:002012-12-25T22:57:32.568-05:00As an underemployed woman and world-class procrast...As an underemployed woman and world-class procrastinator, I feel you. (Maybe that's the cause of the lady boner?) I definitely procrastinate creative work out of a fear of... not actually sucking, but just being lame. Eh. But you? I'll buy the memoir and the novel.

Mostly I like to think it's part of my adorably curmudgeonly persona, but sometimes I go over the edge and need a reality check. Also, if you like French-Canadian accents, may I suggest moving to Ottawa?

I am, of course, also pleased that it's making you happier as well. <br /><br />I also over-identify with what I do which was really hard for the many years that I discounted the work of motherhood and, since that was what I was doing, felt worthless.
