But, I won't call myself an author until I'm published. <br /><br />Don't feel bad about not dusting.

And yes, the word "author" makes you think published, and the word "writer" is a little more flexible. <br /><br />Thanks for all your positive comments on my writing. I wasn't fishing for compliments. Really, I wasn't, but I greatly appreciate all of them!<br /><br />Here, here, Strange Fiction! We are all writers! And we should be proud!Susan R.

Yeah, it would be great to be paid but we still do it regardless, right? That's one of the great things about doing what you love.Cindy R.

I was wondering what that meant! And I really like what you said about not being paid for being a wife and mother but still being able to call ourselves that.

You are a writer. Most people consider an author someone that has been published. I think you're a good writer too!<br /><br />I guess your handle fits me too.

I've been lazy with everything lately except writing. I've tried to continue to be a decent mother and wife too, but the house has definitely been neglected.<br /><br />By the way, I think I have a pair of shoes just like that.Heather Sunserihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12552506888985553471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515903861204137058.post-45080258117411912192009-07-13T18:02:51.656-05:002009-07-13T18:02:51.656-05:00Great post.
