I think that many of us deal with the same thing... who doesn't want to write something that people like? We can't worry though what people think... although we appreciate the feedback... you have to write what's on your mind and heart to be true to your self. I am really enjoying your alliterative posts... Great job once again! :-)Tori Cooperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06312794332180689318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3315861630765119669.post-64527496054877790542010-04-10T18:28:24.412+03:002010-04-10T18:28:24.412+03:00I've always heard, 'write for yourself'...I've always heard, 'write for yourself', but that's when my insecurity comes in.
