Something that I like about myself.

Despite being down a lot lately about not getting published (as I write this I got another rejection letter) I actually do think I’m a good writer.  I like the way I write, I like my style, and I like the characters I create.  

I just wish someone else would like them as much as I do and give me a shot.

I do like being a creative person.  With writing, and the crafts, and painting, I like that I do these things in my life.  I can’t imagine NOT doing them, even if writing isn’t going so well right now.  I like the way my brain works in creative ways, and I like having an imagination.  I was one of those kids that played Barbies and made up stories for her, could turn a shoebox into a house, a slipper into a car, and things like that.  And I like that I haven’t forgotten my creative ways.  I even tried, once, in college, to pursue a different path.  It didn’t work.  So I can only assume that this is meant to be.

It’ll happen someday.  It’s hard as hell to stay positive, but I’d like to think that it’ll happen.  I’ll have a story with characters that people love, that they have their own ideas for.  Fanfics, and fanart, and OTPs and whatnot, I want that.  I want that so badly you have no idea.  But with all the constant rejection it’s hard to take pride in what I do, but I am proud of it.
