Yes, she would like it if people would read her blog, but it's not necessary - according to her. But this same friend also has a first draft of her WIP. I discussed with her the MNINB challenge and all we had learned, and I recommended to her that she do the challenge (for however long it takes her. For ultimately, I think what she implied was, I'm afraid to be rejected so, I'll write for myself. But are there authors out there who write a book just for themselves, or are they afraid of rejection - or is there another reason altogether? It's hard to know.<br /><br />For me, I would like to be read, because I my goal for my website/blog is to build a community of people who have had such life-changing events that these struggles have changed the direction of their life's road. I am pleased that there will be guest bloggers soon. That lets me know that there are people who want to be part of that community and also want to help others. Solidarity is a powerful friend - and can help many get through tragedy. And solidarity among writers and their readers also is powerful for both. Solidarity can help both partners grow.<br /><br />Thanks for the post - <br />MoniqueMonique Liddlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06581045047444260284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5701398832410746913.post-28173917095379351662012-05-05T17:55:41.893-07:002012-05-05T17:55:41.893-07:00Thanks, Kasie!
