My very first post to my blog. This isn't going to be anything fancy just a place for me to ramble about things happening in my life.

I have dreamed for years about writing the great American novel. Something about being a wife and mother and full time employee has always seemed to get in my way.

I have a couple of friends who also write. We are encouraging each other to write, and then actually submit our work for publication.

:0 A scary thought for me, that would mean people would read the things I write.

What if they don't like it? What if they think it is dumb or boring? I don't know if I could handle that rejection.

I have a confession to make. My grammer is SO bad I am terrified for people to read my writing. I know it is a silly fear for someone who wants to be an author.

But I'm being honest it is a scary thing for me. I have decided that this is a good place to get a little practice.

When I write something I read it then re write over and over. Then I get caught up in silly details and never move on.
