How sad for you that society was so ill informed when you were growing up. There was nothing wrong with you. Nothing.

It was just assumed that I was 'not bright'. To top that of, I had the horrible label of 'day-dreamer'. I can't remember a day I didn't hear the phrase, "What is wrong with you." After two disastrous marriages, I entered a marriage of convenience to a person I didn't know. He became my best friend and the love of my life. He gave me courage and self confidence. He also does a lot of pre-editing.

He's super supportive, and he's taken over household chores like laundry without complaint. But writing he flat out doesn't understand. He's so intellectual, I'm not sure he knows how. lol My cheerleader right now is a critique partner I've had for a few years now. She's always there with a kind word, to insist I don't suck as much as i think I do and I love her for it. <br /><br />I'm with Barbara...I think Calvin needs to pass on some of his mojo. Or at the very least, teach classes. lol So glad you've got him, Vonnie! You deserve a cheerleader!Joanne Stewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17708364499624604625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9023937099212820339.post-36369794799766393862013-03-27T12:39:36.101-04:002013-03-27T12:39:36.101-04:00Indeed you will prove them all wrong, Jannine.

They were skeptical at first (except for my mom - mom's have to believe in you LOL) but after reading my books, the consensus was, "Hey, you're actually really good!) But I don't think anyone believes I'm ever going to make any money at it (so I should just get a real job and...) I guess I'll have to prove them wrong!
