Well, a month ago I sent my story, "I'll Be The One", to my auntie. Now she's a writer. She's written for Port Charles, General Hospital, and now Guiding Light. Well anyway, I sent it to her even though I was nervous to, but she loved it. She said that it sounded more like a movie script than it did a short story. She loved the love story as well as the dialouge. And she is now encouraging me to write a book. So I'm going to try to do that.
Now I'm just going to take one of the stories I've written and thicken it up a little and then send them to a publisher.
One problem, I'm afraid of getting a rejection letter. That's the one thing that's actually holding me back. But I feel as if I don't try then I'll never know. So wish me luck, cause I'm gonna try to do this.

I hope things work out for you. If they don't just keep trying. Don't see a rejection letter as a sign to quit, just keep trying if it's something you feel you can succeed at. You're in my prayers and good luck!!

^^^^ that's what my mom said Peaches! But thanks guys for the support! It's something that I've been juggling in my head about doing. It's a little scary but I feel as if maybe I should pursue it. I'll try not to look at the rejection letter like that. It may hurt if I get one, but I won't quit. Again, thanks for the support. I really appreciate it! And if they should publish it, I hope you guys will pick it up! Y'all will definitely be in my shout-outs!!! ;D ;D Which one should I send out?

I love them all too, but if I had to narrow it down...I love "The Broken Hearted" series the most!

Thanks Nina, that was really sweet of you to say. Right now, I'm trying to find an agent. I can't send out my manuscripts until I do. So hopefully, I can get one soon.
