I know my family & friends love me, but they're not reading those small literary journals I'm publishing in, and that gives me the freedom to explore certain topics (sex, religion) that might make them uncomfortable...So I guess I've found one of the few benefits of writing in obscurity. ;)Rochelle Spencerhttp://www.rochellespencer.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5218562477185734171.post-75438675125440647122010-08-17T19:48:35.996-07:002010-08-17T19:48:35.996-07:00I am so terrified of the attic clowns, but I got a...I am so terrified of the attic clowns, but I got a signed book from Jeremy with a cartoon on it!!

I don't have a goldfish (I have a bad habit of overfeeding them) but when no one else will listen at least my dog will. <br /><br />This piece of advice struck a chord with me: "accept that you do not need permission to write...they can't stop you!!!"<br />>> Yes! 100% agree and think I should write that on a piece of paper and JJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12710025691586074051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5218562477185734171.post-14444035040315019072010-08-17T18:11:42.310-07:002010-08-17T18:11:42.310-07:00Excellent advice!
