Ruth Ayers has inspired me. A few years ago, before the other five grandkids arrived, I started a children's book for my granddaughter, Kaylee. It has sat on my laptop all this time. I open it up once in awhile, play with it a little and then close it up. In my recent Web 2.0 class, I worked on some different ways to illustrate it, but, again, closed it up.
I've been following Ruth's new blog, Ruth Ayers Writes. Today's post dealt with fear. Specifically, a character's fear, but this easily transfers to my own. What am I afraid of? That the story won't be any good? Rejection? Being laughed at?
So today, I start a new writer's notebook and dust off the story--plus a couple of others that have been running around in my brain. And I will write...
Will I share? Only time will tell.
