Having recently published my first book, I feel excited and very alone at the same time. I am elated to see that people will be able to read something I put my heart and soul into. Not to mention endless hours of writing and rewriting. At the same time, though I am working on book number 2 in the series, I find myself thinking; and now what? My family was and still are supportive, however, they have gone from the excitement of the awaited hour to eh, its published now what are you going to do? I know they do not mean it this way but that is the way it feels. Which is why I am here writing instead of working on my current WIP. Have a wonderful weekend all.
We are all products of the successes we make
Judged by the adventures and risks that we take
If we succeed than we are the hero of the day
If we fail we are the fool for the games that we play
Do they take us serious, no not until we succeed
We are lessened to nothing unless we fulfill their need
For glory through others is what they long for, their deepest desire
Oh if they could only see the truth and the things you admire
The ones that make us all equal in our own personal way
The need to be accepted without the games that they play
To be desired without all of the stress
Though very few will be brave enough to confess
We hope that they will see us for who we are, not what we can do
I will freely confess this, what about you?

Jasmine, thank you for your feedback. I agree that we do carry on. We carry the battle scars that make us who we are and hope that as creative minds, they make us better.
