This is nothing more than a journal where I intend to keep my various and random thoughts. I can't promise you will find anything inspiring, uplifting, original, or of literary value. I can't promise this is even worth reading. It probably isn't. What I do promise is it will be honest. It might be raw. It might be edgy. It may occassionally be sweet, touching, and sentimental. I can make no promise save that it will be real. With that being said, happy reading...and one more thing: burn it when you're through.
It's good to know a little more about you. Kudos to you for being published and making money from it! I've had several pieces published in anthologies and newsletters but there was no for it. Like you, my passion and dream job would be writing but unless (or until?) I'm able to make money doing so, it'll have to remain a "hobby".
Sorry to hear about your relationship. It sucks and I've been there more times than I'd like to remember. One thing I can tell you is that (I'll apologize in advance for being cliché) but everything happens for a reason. If you're not sure about where you want to go in life, what you want out of it or even who you are, it's probably for the best that you're not engaged anymore. I'm not being cruel at all and I really do have a point. When you do figure all of those things out and you're ready (heart, mind and soul), it'll happen. Trust me. Whether it's reuniting with this person or finding someone else, it will happen. I think I've mentioned before that you remind me a lot of well, me when I was younger. I've had a rough go of it too. My life has not been easy either (not sure if you read my bio "All About Me" or not). Anyway, all those hard knocks will make you stronger. I'm now 34 and I've been married for 5 1/2 years. Things will get better and, eventually, the good times will outweigh the bad. Take it from an old lady like me, I know what I'm talking about!
Oh my, you sound just like me! I can't even begin to tell you the number of times I ranted about this very thing...and it's usually in my blog. I wrote an entry a little over a week ago that is similar to what you have in #3. I think the only thing I can say is that some people are just assholes. Try to stay focused on your writing and not the reviews. It's always great to receive great reviews with ratings but, every so often, you're going to get one that falls into one of the three you have listed in your entry. Does it suck? Absolutely. Unfortunately, there's nothing we can do about it but forget them. Don't sweat the crap reviews or the ratings without reviews. I just reviewed a couple of items in your port, before I stumbled upon your blog. I think you're a great writer...but I'm a nobody so that may not be much comfort to you.
