Is it Okay to Love Your Own Stories?

As a writer, you better!!! Once a long time ago, I pushed myself to finish a story I didn't like. I had to have resolution. I had started it, I had to finish it. I hated it.

Would anyone like the story? No. Why should anyone? If I didn't even like it!

After finishing writing The Highland Wolf in Paradise--I was looking over a YA fantasy I had written some years ago. I laughed so much while I was reading it, thoroughly enjoying the story, and thinking to myself how much I loved it.

I used to write a lot of fantasy. I never tried to sell it. I just loved writing it. Then, I wanted to do more realistic, so I began writing and researching medieval times to write my medieval Highland romances and researching the 19th C. old west for the time travel. And I began to write paranormal contemporary--psychics and then more hardcore--vampires and werewolves.



But I still love my fantasies. I grew up on fantasies. The mythologies around the world. The stories that were chocked full of morals. So I will be periodically uploading my fantasies--that were just too fun to write that it shouldn't be allowed.

What do you think???



I love this picture, and no, I don't feel at all like this today, despite it being a Monday!!!
