Each Day Already is a Challenge

Are you reviewing a poem or a life?

As I read a few stories and poems today, I thought about something that William Stafford said.

"We do not correct a piece of writing; in doing so, we question a life." William Stafford

Stafford started writing as a youth, but his first poem was not published until he was 48 years old.

In his lifetime, he wrote 22,000 poems and had 3,000 published.

None of us should give up. Robert Frost's poetry was first rejected. And Stephen King was among the many writers who had to self-publish their first works.

Keep your chin up. And write on!
